Question

Two dynamics carts are placed end to end. Cart 1 (1.2 kg) is stuck to cart 2 (1.8 kg). Cart 1 is pushed with a force of 18.9 N (west),causing cart 1 to push cart 2 forward. Ignore the force of friction.
Calculate the acceleration of each cart
Calculate the force that cart 1 exerts on cart 2
bobpursley
force=total mass* acceleration=sumMasses*a
calculate a
force on cart2=mass2*a
How would i find the acceleration?
