Two blocks with the same mass are connected by a string and are pulled across a frictionless
Question:
Two blocks with the same mass are connected by a string and are pulled across a frictionless surface by a constant force, F, exerted by a string (see diagram).
a. Will the two blocks move with constant velocity? Explain.
b. Will the tension in the connecting string be greater than, less than, or equal to the force F? Explain.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
