Question

In the figure, block 1 of mass $m_1 = 1.6$ kg and block 2 of mass $m_2 = 1.1$ kg are connected by a string of negligible mass. Block 2 is pushed by force $\vec{F}$ of magnitude 18 N and angle $\theta = 40^\circ$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each block and the horizontal surface is 0.16. What is the tension in the string?
