In the given arrangement of a doubly inclined plane,two blocks of masses $M$ and $m$ are placed. The blocks are connected by a light string passing over an ideal pulley as shown. The coefficient of friction between the surface of the plane and the blocks is $0.25$. The value of $m$,for which $M=10 \text{ kg}$ will move down with an acceleration of $2 \text{ m/s}^2$,is: (take $g=10 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\tan 37^{\circ}=3/4$) (in $\text{ kg}$)
