Two freely rolling carts, A and B, are pushed along a frictionlesstrack, with cart A being pushed by someone's hand, and cart B beingpushed by cart A. cart A has mass mA = 1.30 kg and cart B has massmB = 3.51 kg. The acceleration of the carts is a = 1.35 m/s2. Theacceleration of gravity g = 9.81 m/s2

Which of the following forces must be equal in magnitude because ofNewton's second law?
N hand->cart A choices are W earth->cart A, W earth->cartB, N cart B->cart A, N tract-> cart A, or none of theabove
N track->cart B choices are W earth->cart A, W earth->cartB, N cart B->cart A, N tract-> cart A, or none of theabove
W earth->cart A choices are W earth->cart A, W earth->cartB, N cart B->cart A, N tract-> cart A, or none of theabove

Find the magnitude of the force exerted by cart B on cart A.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
