(choose chapter or problem)

Three blocks on a frictionless horizontal surface are in contact with each other as shown in Fig. 454. A force is applied to block A (mass ). (a) Draw a free-body diagram for each block. Determine (b) the acceleration of the system (in terms of and ), (c) the net force on each block, and (d) the force of contact that each block exerts on its neighbor. (e) If and give numerical answers to (b), (c), and (d). Explain how your answers make sense intuitively
