Three blocks are at rest on a smooth, horizontal table. You push on block A (m = 1.50 kg) to the right with a horizontal force of F push. As a result, block A pushes on block B (m = 2.50 kg), block B pushes on block C (m = 1.20 kg), and the system of blocks moves to the right with an acceleration of 1.12 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the force that block B exerts on block C?

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
