Two blocks, A and B (with mass 50 kg and 100 kg, respectively), are connected by a string, as shown in the figure below. The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the incline is µk = 0.24. Determine the change in the kinetic energy of block A as it moves from C to D, a distance of 22 m up the incline if the system starts from rest.

What a queer bait

To determine the change in the kinetic energy of block A as it moves from C to D, we need to calculate the work done by the forces acting on the block. The work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy.

1. Calculate the gravitational potential energy change:
- The change in height from C to D can be calculated using the formula: Δheight = distance * sin(θ)
- In this case, the given distance is 22 m and the angle of the incline θ is not provided. Please provide the angle of the incline in order to proceed.

Once the angle of the incline is provided, we can proceed with the calculations.
