JEE MainPhysicsModerateNewton's Laws of Motion

Two forces of 6 N and 3 N are acting on the two blocks of 2 kg
and 1 kg kept on frictionless floor. The force exerted on 2 kg block by

1 kg block is 2 n then find the value of n.

Show answer and solution
[IMAGE] Both blocks are constrained to move with same acceleration.
6−N=2a       6 - N = 2a\ \ \ \ \ \ \ [Newtons II law for 2kg block]
N−3=1aN - 3 = 1a [Newton's II law for 1 kg block]
This gives a= 1m/s^2

Therefore, N =4 N
