consider the following system, where f =
90 n, m= 2 kg, and m = 3 kg
m
m
what is the magnitude of the force with
which one block acts on the other?
1.54 n
2. 90 n
3. 60 n
4. 36 n
5. 135 n
6. none of these

The magnitude of the force with which one block acts on the other is 90 N.

The given parameters;

According to Newton's second law of motion, action and reaction are always equal and opposite. Each object will exact equal force but in opposite direction.

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the force with which one block acts on the other is 90 N.

The contact force is equal to 36N. (Option 4)

Why?

Since there is no information about the direction of the force, I'll assume that the force is horizontal, acting from left to right, and the  and the blocks are next to the other.

Calculations:

Let be the block "M" be on the left, and "m" be on the right,

So,

For the block "m", we have:

For the block "M", we have:

Substituting "a" from the first equation, we have:

Hence, we have that the contact force is equal to 36N.

Have a nice day!

that would be because of both gravity and friction. so     c

the best answer for these questions would be:

1.            c. is smaller

2.            d) concrete operational

3.            b) interaction with the environment – the children interact with their environment can them learn more.

4.            a) parents who reason openly with children can limit a child’s cognitive ability.
