A system composed of blocks, a light frictionless pulley, and connecting ropes is shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the both blocks and the incline is 0.12. The 9.0-kg block accelerates downward when the system is released from rest. What is the acceleration of the system and the tension in the rope connecting the 6.0-kg block and the 4.0-kg block?
