The system's tension is 616 N and acceleration is 5.6
<u>Explanation:</u>
From newton’s second law of motion which state that net force acting on a body is product of mass of a body and acceleration of a body which is given as,
Where,
is net force acting on body
is mass of body
a is acceleration of body
Given values
Table mass (m) = 30 kg
Hanging mass (m) = 40 kg
Put the value for m = hanging mass = 40 kg and , we get
The tension in the ropes,
Here, m as hanging mass
T = tension, N or
m = mass, kg
g = gravitational force,
a = acceleration,
