Question

Two blocks connected by a light horizontal rope sit at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block A has mass 15.0 [kg], and block B has mass m. A constant horizontal force F = [60.0 N] is applied to block A. In the first 5.00 [s] after the force is applied, block A moves 18.0 [m] to the right.

a) Determine the acceleration of block A during the first 5 sec, if both block A and B started from rest

b) Determine the acceleration of block B.
