AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the forces acting on the system consisting of the block and the rope. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the System We have a block of mass \( M \) on a frictionless horizontal surface, and it is connected to a rope of mass \( m \). A force \( F \) is applied to one end of the rope. ### Step 2: Identify the Forces - The force \( F \) is applied to the rope. - The tension \( T \) in the rope acts on the block, pulling it forward. ...
