Expert Solution
Step 1

a)     

A system with just Block 1: No external interaction with Block I.

  • A system with just Block 2: Yes, an external interaction with Block I, since Block 2 is in contact with Block I and can exert a force on it.
  • A system with just Block 3: Yes, an external interaction with Block I, since Block 3 is in contact with Block 2, which is in turn in contact with Block I, and can exert a force on it.
  • A system with Blocks 2 and 3: Yes, an external interaction with Block I, for the same reason as above.
  • A system with Blocks 1 and 2: Yes, an external interaction with Block I, since Block 2 is in contact with Block I and can exert a force on it.
  • A system with all three blocks: Yes, an external interaction with Block I, for the same reason as above.

Therefore, all of the systems experience an external interaction with Block I except for a system with just Block 1.
