The given diagram describes a three-pulley system of C, D, and E. These pulleys are connected to two masses A and B as shown. Block A is \\( 70 \\mathrm{~kg} \\) and block B is \\( 40 \\mathrm{~kg} \\). The coefficient of kinetic friction between block \\( B \\) and the slope is \\( \\mu_{k}=0.25 \\). Assume that the pulleys are frictionless and have negligible masses. Block A is initially moving downward. (a) Draw coordinates, free body diagrams, and kinetic diagrams for the important objects. (b) Write the kinematic constraints that apply to blocks A and B. (c) Determine the tension in the cable, and the acceleration of each block.
