Serway & Jewett β€” The Laws of Motion: Problem 36

A 5.00-kg block is placed on top of a 10.0-kg block (Fig. P5.36). A horizontal force of 45.0 N is applied to the 10-kg block, and the 5.00-kg block is tied to the wall. The coefficient of kinetic friction between all moving surfaces is 0.200. (a) Draw a free-body diagram for each block and identify the action–reaction forces between the blocks. (b) Determine the tension in the string and the magnitude of the acceleration of the 10.0-kg block.
