Question

 Three boxes with masses m1= 1.5 kg, m2= 5.9 kg and m3= 7.9 kg are in contact with one another on a smooth frictionless surface, pushed by a 46 N force F⃗ pushF→push.  What is the magnitude of the acceleration of block 1?
 6.22 m/s2m/s2
 3.01 m/s2m/s2
 4.69 m/s2m/s2
 30.7 m/s2m/s2

How does the size of the normal force that 2 pushes on 1 with compare with the size of the normal force that 1 pushes on 2 with?
 2 pushes on 1 more than 1 pushes on 2
 2 pushes on 1 less than 1 pushes on 2
 2 pushes on 1 just as much as 1 pushes on 2
