Two objects are connected by a very light flexible string as shown in the figure, where M = 0.60 kg and m = 0.40 kg. You can ignore friction and the mass of the pulley.
 
  (a) Draw free-body diagrams for each object.
  (b) Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of each object.
  (c) Calculate the tension in the string.
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

A wooden block A of mass 4.0 kg slides on a frictionless table when pulled using a massless string and pulley array by a hanging box B of mass 5.0 kg, as shown in the figure.
 
  What is the acceleration of block A as it slides on the frictionless table? Hint: Think carefully about the acceleration constraint.
 
  A) 4.1 m/s2
  B) 3.5 m/s2
  C) 3.1 m/s2
  D) 2.7 m/s2

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
