A block of mass m1 is placed on top of a block of mass m2. You push the two blocks so that they move up a vertical wall, with a constant force of magnitude P directed at angle theta. The coefficient of friction between m2 and the wall is u. There is no friction between the blocks and no friction between m1 and the wall. Find the force exerted by the lower block on the upper block. The answer the book gives me is (P(cos(theta)-u*sin(theta)))/(1+(m2/m1)) I get how to get the numerator but am unsure of how the denominator answer was gotten and where gravity went in the equation
