His victory took place at Trenton. On December 26, 1776, in the morning, George Washington's Continental Army is on the outskirts of Trenton unexpected by the Hessian force guarding the city.
(a)
<span>Let: </span>
<span>a be the acceleration of the system, </span>
<span>g be the acceleration due to gravity, </span>
<span>T be the tension in the string. </span>
<span>For mA: </span>
<span>T = mA a </span>
<span>For mB: </span>
<span>mB g - T = mB a </span>
<span>Adding to eliminate T: </span>
<span>mB g = (mA + mB)a ...(1) </span>
<span>a = mB g / (mA + mB) </span>

<span>= 3.815 m/s^2 </span>
<span>= 3.82 m/s^2 to 3 sig. fig. </span>
<span>(b) </span>
<span>Let: </span>
<span>s be the distance to the edge of the table, </span>
<span>t be the time taken. </span>
<span>s = at^2 / 2 </span>
<span>t = sqrt(2s / a) </span>
