A block B is pulled by a force of 18 N applied to a light pulley as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of friction is 0.4 and the acceleration of the block is 0.5 ms^(-2) , the mass of the block is (g = 10 m//s^2)

Two blocks A and B of masses m& 2m respectively are held at rest such that the spring is in natural length. Find out the acceleratins of both the blocks just after release.
