The above site gives the diagram to the problem that I am working with.
It shows three blocks attached by cords that loop over frictionless pulleys. Block B lies on a frictionless table; the masses are Block A = 6.00 kg, Block B = 8.00 kg, and Block C = 10.0 kg. When the blocks are released, what is the tension in the cord at the right?
I tried setting this problem up so that I subtracted my right tension equation (or atleast what I thought was my right tension) from my left tension equation, and it came out to a really small number. I've been attempting several ways and I just have no idea how to do this. Any help would be appreciated very much!!
