In the given arrangement of a doubly inclined plane two blocks of masses $\mathrm{M}$ and $\mathrm{m}$ are placed. The blocks are connected by a light string passing over an ideal pulley as shown. The coefficient of friction between the surface of the plane and the blocks is $0.25$ . The value of $\mathrm{m}$, for which $\mathrm{M}=10$ $\mathrm{kg}$ will move down with an acceleration of $2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$, is : (take $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ and $\left.\tan 37^{\circ}=3 / 4\right)$

For M block

$10 \mathrm{~g} \sin 53^{\circ}-\mu(10 \mathrm{~g}) \cos 53^{\circ}-\mathrm{T}=10 \times 2$

$\mathrm{~T}=80-15-20$

$\mathrm{~T}=45 \mathrm{~N}$

For $\mathrm{m}$ block

$\mathrm{T}-\mathrm{mg} \sin 37^{\circ}-\mu \mathrm{mg} \cos 37^{\circ}=\mathrm{m} \times 2$

$45=10 \mathrm{~m}$

$\mathrm{~m}=4.5 \mathrm{~kg}$
