Answer:
The force is 7.8 N.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of small object = 2M
Mass of large object = 4M
Here, M = 1.0 kg
Force of the small block = 5.2 N
We need to calculate the acceleration of 4 kg block
Using formula of force
[tex]F=ma[/tex]
[tex]a=\dfrac{F}{m}[/tex]
[tex]a=\dfrac{5.2}{4}[/tex]
[tex]a=1.3\ m/s^2[/tex]
The 2 kg block is also accelerating at 1.3 m/s², making a total of 6 kg.
We need to calculate the force
Using formula of force
[tex]F=ma[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]F=6\times1.3[/tex]
[tex]F=7.8\ N[/tex]
Hence, The force is 7.8 N.
