Two blocks, each of mass m = 3.10 kg are hung from the ceiling of an elevator as in the figure below.

(a) If the elevator moves with an upward acceleration a with arrow of magnitude 2.0 m/s2, find the tensions T1 and T2 in the upper and lower strings.
T1 = N
T2 = N

(b) If the strings can withstand a maximum tension of 81.0 N, what maximum acceleration can the elevator have before a string breaks?
m/s2
