The blocks A and B shown in the figure are originally at rest, and all contact surfaces are smooth(frictionless). If a towing force given in the other figure, acting horizontally, is applied to block A for 3 s, determine the final velocities of the blocks at time t=3 s. Note: The blocks masses are mA= 5 kg and mB=3 kg.
