Question

Q: Three blocks of masses $m_1 = 5 ext{ kg}$, $m_2 = 2 ext{ kg}$, $m_3 = 10 ext{ kg}$ are placed in contact with each other on a frictionless, horizontal surface as shown in the figure below. A constant horizontal force $F = 102 ext{ N}$ is applied to $m_1$ as shown. Find the magnitude of the force of contact between block $m_2$ and block $m_3$.
