Maths (Mechanics Help)

[url]http://i49.tinypic.com/2vvmlbt.jpg[/url] I'm stuck on these questions based on inclined planes and pulley systems z.z I'm ok with question 1 on impulses and change in momentum, but the rest is just gwaah. Help would be appreciated

    Since the left mass is accelerating at 2.8 m/s^2, the right mass is accelerating at -2.8 m/s^2. MA = Fg - Ft... but A is negative, so flip Ft and Fg. Ft - Fg = MA. You know Ft now, Fg is 9.8*M. You need to use algebra to isolate the M. A is 2.8. M(A + 9.8) = Ft. Ft is 3.5, so M = .27777, which is 5/18 kg.
