Homework Statement
Two blocks are in contact on a frictionless table. A horizontol force is applied to one block as shown in Fig 7. If m1 = 2.0 kg, m2 = 1.0 kg, and |F|applied = 3N, find the force of contact between two blocks.
----> --------
| A | B |
note: the height of B is a little smaller.
A= m1
B = m2.
The arrow is the force applied.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Fnet(1) = Fapp - Fm2
-> Fapp = m1a + Fm2 (eqn 1)
Fnet(2) = Fapp + Fm1
Fapp = m2a - Fm1. (eqn 2)
Fm2 + Fm1 = a(m2-m1)
