2. Two blocks of mass \( m_{A}=2 \mathrm{~kg} \) and \( m_{B}=3 \mathrm{~kg} \) are connected by a light string through a frictionless and very light pulley, as shown in the figure. The horizontal floor is frictionless, while the coefficient of static and kinetic friction between \( \mathrm{A} \) and \( \mathrm{B} \) are \( \mu_{\mathrm{S}}=0,8 \) and \( \mu_{\mathrm{K}}=0,6 \), respectively. A constant horizontal force of magnitude \( F=50 \mathrm{~N} \) is applied to Block B. The acceleration due to gravity is \( g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \). a. Draw the free-body diagrams for each block \( A \) and \( B \). b. Find the magnitude of the acceleration for each block. c. Determine the tension in the string.
