A wedge of mass M and angle α is resting on africtionless horizontal plane. A rectangular box of mass m is onthe wedge. Since all surfaces are frictionless, the box will slidedown the wedge and the wedge will slide in the opposite directionon the plane. Determine the accelerations of the two bodies.
