Homework Statement
Three blocks are in contact with each other on a frictionless, horizontal surface, as in Figure P5.54. A horizontal force F is applied to m1. Take m1 = 2.00 kg, m2 = 3.00 kg, m3 = 4.00 kg, and F = 22.0 N.
(c)What is the magnitude of the contact force between m1 and m2?
(d)What is the magnitude of the contact force between m2 and m3?
