Question 5 (10 marks)A mass of m1 kilograms is initially held at rest near the bottom of a smooth plane inclined at θ degrees to the horizontal. It is connected to a mass of m2 kilograms by a light inextensible string parallel to the plane, which passes over a smooth pulley at the end of the plane. The mass m2 is 2 m above the horizontal floor.The situation is shown in the diagram below.
