Q9 · Physics

A horizontal force 10 N is applied to a block AA as shown in figure. The mass of blocks AA and BB are 2 kg and 3 kg, respectively. The blocks slide over a frictionless surface. The force exerted by block AA on block BB is :

The figure, described in words

F = 10 N pushes block A (2 kg) horizontally, which is in contact with block B (3 kg) on a frictionless floor.
