Problem-solving strategies for analyzing dynamics problems

The 20-kg block shown in Figure P3.33 accelerates down and to the left, and the 10-kg block accelerates up. Find the magnitude of this acceleration and the force that the cable exerts on a block. There is no friction between the block and the inclined plane, and the pulley is frictionless and light.
