Well, the tension is same all over the rope. Let T.

Let the acceleration of the system, a, act downwards for the 290N weight and upwards for the 200N weight.

Let g = 9.8 m s^(-2).

So the mass of 290N weight is 290 / 9.8 kg and that of 200N weight is 200 / 9.8 kg.

\setlength {\unitlength}{1mm}\begin {picture} (5,3)\put (0,0){\vector (0,-1){30}}\put (0,0){\vector (0,1){30}}\put (60,0){\vector (0,-1){30}}\put (60,0){\vector (0,1){30}}\put(-12,0){$\frac{290}{9.8}\ kg$}\put(62,0){$\frac{200}{9.8}\ kg$}\put(-12,-30){$290N$}\put(-4,30){$T$}\put(62,-30){$200N$}\put(62,30){$T$}\put(10,15){\vector(0,-1){30}}\multiput(15,0)(30,0){2}{$\mathbf{a}$}\put(50,-15){\vector(0,1){30}}\end {picture}\multiput(-4.85,0)(60,0){2}{\circle*{2}}

On considering FBD of the 290N weight,

290 - T = 290a / 9.8 → (1)

On considering FBD of the 200N weight,

T - 200 = 200a / 9.8 → (2)

Adding (1) and (2),

490a / 9.8 = 90

50a = 90

a = 1.8 m s^(-2)

Answer:1.8 m/s

Explanation:

290 - T = 290a / 9.8 → (1)

On considering FBD of the 200N weight,

T - 200 = 200a / 9.8 → (2)

Adding (1) and (2),

490a / 9.8 = 90

50a = 90

a = 1.8 m s^(-2)
