This is great for kids to understand what happens in a simple situation when a ball's mass changes or the force on it is increased or decreased…they can see the effect on acceleration

This site provides a neat, concise, and lucid explanation of how to solve problems having to do with pulleys. It extends the simple explanation to include inertia; and, by extension, friction as well. Just substitute friction for inertia (Ia).
