Question

Three blocks are in contact with each other on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction is μk = 0.10. A horizontal force F is applied to m1. If m1 = 4.00 kg, m2 = 5.00 kg, and m3 = 6.00 kg, and F = 20 N, draw a separate Free Body Diagram for each block and find (a) the acceleration of the blocks (b) the NET force on each block, and (c) the magnitudes of the contact forces between the blocks.

Step 1

For block m1 (4.00 kg): - Forces acting on m1: - Applied force F = 20 N to the right - Friction force f12 between m1 and m2 to the left - Normal force N1 acting upwards - Weight of m1 acting downwards For block m2 (5.00 kg): - Forces acting on m2: - Show more…
