Consider the diagram shown below in which two masses of $m$ and $2m$ are placed on a fixed triangular wedge. The coefficient of friction between block $A$ (mass $m$) and the wedge is $\mu_A = 2/3$,while that for block $B$ (mass $2m$) and the wedge is $\mu_B = 1/3$. Find the acceleration of the system.
