Homework Statement
Two blocks, one of mass 6 kg and the other of mass 2 kg, are placed in contact on a horizontal table, and a constant horizontal force is applied to the 6 kg mass. There is a constant frictional force of 18 N between the 6 kg mass and the table, but no frictional force between the 2 kg mass and the table. the blocks accelerate at 3 m/s2.
a. what is the propulsive force applied to the 6 kg mass?
b. what is the force at the interface between the two blocks?

F=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
I honestly have no idea where to start I have read the book and looked at my notes and I am not sure where to start.
Fnet=ma
fnet= F-18[/B]
