$A$ body of mass $20 \,kg$ is moving on a rough horizontal plane. $A$ block of mass $3 \,kg$ is connected to the $20 \,kg$ mass by a string of negligible mass through a smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The tension in the string is $27 \,N$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the heavier mass and the surface is $\left(g=10 \,m/s^2\right)$.
