The horizontal surface on which the objects slide is frictionless. If M = 1.0 kg and the magnitude of the force of the small block on the large block is 5.2 N, determine F

>2M4M

The force is 7.8 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of small object = 2M

Mass of large object = 4M

Here, M = 1.0 kg

Force of the small block = 5.2 N

We need to calculate the acceleration of 4 kg block

Using formula of force

The 2 kg block is also accelerating at 1.3 m/s², making a total of 6 kg.

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The force is 7.8 N.
