Problem

Two identical smooth blocks P and Q, each of mass 2 kg2\,\text{kg}, are kept in contact on a frictionless horizontal table. A horizontal force FF is applied on block Q toward the right. Which one of the following describes the contact force between the blocks? a) The contact force is FF and acts on P toward the right. b) The contact force is F2\dfrac{F}{2} and acts on Q toward the left. c) The contact force is F2\dfrac{F}{2} and acts on Q toward the right. d) The contact force is 00."
