Determine the tension force and the unknown mass

Reference no: EM13500690

An unknown mass is placed on one side of the Atwood's machine. The downward acceleration of the mass 5kg is observed to be exactly one-half of the acceleration due to gravity. Nothing that the tension in the cord is the same on each side of the pulley, determine the tension force and the unknown mass.
