Two boxes are connected by a rope on a frictionless horizontalsurface. Box one is of mass M = 1kg and Box two is of 2M = 2kg. Arope connected to box 2 (front box) has a force applied of 10N.Determine theTension between the two boxes and the acceleration ofthe set of masses.
I know how to solve for the acceleration and determined it to be3.3m/s2. But I am not sure how to determine the tension forcebetween the boxes. The given solution is 3.3N
