Question

Two blocks are stacked as shown. The blocks have masses m1 = 5.45 kg and m2 = 2m1. The kinetic coefficient of friction between the two blocks is μ1 = 0.456, while the kinetic coefficient of friction between Block 2 and the tabletop is μ1/4. A rightward force of F = 81 Newtons is exerted on Block 1.

the acceleration of Block 1 is 10.39 mls2

 

what is acceleration for block b 

The image depicts a physics diagram involving two blocks with masses \(m_1\) and \(m_2\). Block \(m_1\) is placed on top of block \(m_2\). An external force \(F\) is applied horizontally to block \(m_1\) in the direction indicated by an arrow to the right. Block \(m_2\) is in contact with a horizontal surface. The setup suggests a scenario for analyzing forces, friction, and motion dynamics between the two blocks and the surface.
