What about gravity?

Acceleration of a system with three blocks refers to the rate of change of velocity of the entire system, which is made up of three blocks attached to one another. It is a measure of how quickly the system's speed is increasing or decreasing.
To calculate acceleration of a system with three blocks, you would need to use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration. The net force can be found by summing up all the individual forces acting on the three blocks in the system.
The acceleration of a system with three blocks can be affected by the mass of the blocks, the net force acting on the system, and any external forces such as friction or air resistance. The type of surface the blocks are on and the angle of the incline can also impact the acceleration.
If the mass of one block in the system is increased, the overall acceleration of the system will decrease. This is because the increased mass will require a greater force to accelerate, and the net force acting on the system will decrease.
Yes, it is possible for the acceleration of a system with three blocks to be zero. This would happen if the net force on the system is equal to zero, meaning that all the forces acting on the blocks are balanced and cancel each other out. In this case, the system would either be at rest or moving at a constant velocity.
