Question
The block A with mass of 80 kg slides along the top of the block B with mass of 110 kg. The block A has an acceleration of 3.0 m/s2 when a horizontal force F of 700 N is applied, as in the Figure. There is no friction between the block B and a horizontal frictionless surface, but there is friction between the two blocks. Calculate the acceleration of the block A is going to B during the time that the block A remains in contact.
