2.0 Block A weighs 500.0 N and block B weighs 280.0 N. Block A is held by a cord fastened to the wall. Force P is applied on B to drag it to the left at constant speed. The coefficient of friction between A and B is 0.300 and that between B and the floor is 0.320. Find the following : (a) the normal force exerted by A on B, FNA (b) the tension in the cord attached to A, T. (c) the frictional force exerted by B on A, fsB 60.0 А 20.00 B.
