Homework Statement
Three blocks on a frictionless surface are connected by strings like so (from left to right):
Block 1 (m=10kg) to string with Tension 1 to Block 2 (m=20kg) to string with Tension 2 to Block 3 (m=30kg) to string with Tension 3.
The blocks are pulled to the right with force T3=60N.
Find T1 and T2.
Homework Equations
I'm not even sure... maybe
Fn=mg
The Attempt at a Solution
I would guess T1 is 20N and T2 is 40N, because it's proportional to T3. But this doesn't seem correct. Could I please get some feedback?
Thank you!
