a) With Newton's second law of motion, set up the equations of motion for each block, m1 = 5 kg, m2 = 2 kg, and m3 = 10 kg.
b) From the equations from (a) and Newton's third law of motion, calculate the acceleration of those blocks.
c) Find force, F12(from block 1 onto block 2).
d) Find force F23(from block 2 onto block 3).
e) What is the net force, Fnet 1, on the block m1?
f) What is the net force, Fnet 2, on the block m2?
g) What is the net force, Fnet 3, on the block m3?

Let R be the contact force on m2 and R be the contact force on m3. we can write suing Newton's second law:
(a)for m1, F - R' = m1a
for m2, R' - R = m2a
for m3, R = m3a
b)Adding the above three equations we get
F - R' + R' - R + R = m1a + m2a + m3a
F = a(m1 + m2 + m3)
a = F/(m1 + m2 + m3)
a = F/(5 + 2 + 10) = F/17
c)F1->2 = m2a = m2 x F/(m1 + m2 + m3)
F1->2 = 2 x F/17 = 2/17 F
d)F2->3 = m3a = m3 x F/(m1 + m2 + m3)
F2->3 = 3/17 F
