Three blocks of masses \(m_3 = 1.0 \, \text{kg}\), \(m_2 = 2.0 \, \text{kg}\), and \(m_1 = 4.0 \, \text{kg}\) are connected by massless strings, one of which passes over a frictionless pulley of negligible mass, as shown above.(a) Find the acceleration of the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) block. , (b) Calculate the tension in the string supporting the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) block. , (c) Calculate the tension in the string connected to the \(1 \, \text{kg}\) block. :

\(a=1.4\,\text{m/s}^2\) \(T_1=33.6\,\text{N}\) \(T_2=11.2\,\text{N}\)
