[问答题]
A block (mass $m_{1}$ ) lying on a frictionless inclined plane is connected to a mass $ m_{2}$ by a massless cord passing over a pulley, as shown in Fig. 4-57. (a) Determine a formula for the acceleration of the system of the two blocks in terms of $ m_{1}$,$ m_{2}$,$ \theta $ and g . (b) What conditions apply to masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ for the acceleration to be in one direction (say, $m_{1}$ down the plane), or in the opposite direction?
