Block A in the figure (Figure 1) weighs 1.08 N , and block B weighs 3.16 N . The coefficient of kinetic friction between all surfaces is 0.30.

Find the magnitude of the horizontal force F⃗ necessary to drag block B to the left at constant speed if A and B are connected by a light, flexible cord passing around a fixed, frictionless pulley. (Express your answer in newtons.)
