In the arrangement shown in the figure a wedge of mass m 3

In the arrangement shown in the figure a wedge of mass m 3 45 kg is placed on a smooth horizontal surface Small and light pulley is connected on its top edge as shown A light flexible thread passes over the pulley Two blocks having mass m 1 3 kg and m 1 5 kg are connected at the ends of the thread 171 m m 37 m is on smooth horizontal surface and m rests on inclined smooth surface of the wedge The base length of wedge is 2 m and inclination is 37 m is initially near the top edge of the wedge If the whole system is released from rest calculate a Velocity of wedge when m reaches its bottom b Velocity of m at that instant g 10 ms 2
