Transcribed Image Text:Below is shown three blocks, resting on the floor, all of the same mass \( m \). A force \( \vec{F}_{app} \) is applied to the left-most block. Assume the floor is frictionless.
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram illustrates three blocks placed in a line on a horizontal floor. Each block has the same mass, denoted by \( m \). To the left of the first block, an applied force \( \vec{F}_{app} \) is depicted with an arrow pointing to the right, indicating the direction of the force. This setup assumes the floor is frictionless, meaning the blocks can move freely without resistance.

Transcribed Image Text:**Multiple Choice Options**
A. \( 0 \)
B. \( \frac{1}{3} F_{\text{app}} \)
C. \( \frac{1}{2} F_{\text{app}} \)
D. \( \frac{2}{3} F_{\text{app}} \)
E. \( F_{\text{app}} \)
F. \( \frac{3}{2} F_{\text{app}} \)
G. \( 2 F_{\text{app}} \)
H. \( 3 F_{\text{app}} \)
**Explanation**
The image presents a range of possible answers typically used in physics problems related to force. Each option expresses a multiple of an applied force, denoted as \( F_{\text{app}} \), utilizing fractions and simple multiples to cover various scenarios of force application.
