A block of mass 1.73 kg is placed on top of a
second block of mass 5.35 kg. The coeﬃcient
of kinetic friction between the 5.35 kg block
and the surface is 0.28. A horizontal force F
is applied to the 5.35 kg block. Calculate the magnitude of the force necessary to pull both blocks to the right with an acceleration of 2.02 m/s^2
Assume no slipping between the two blocks. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2

Answer in units of N
