Three identical blocks A, B, and C of masses m=2 kg each are connected by a light string sequentially where A and C are placed at the ends. A force of 10.2N is applied to pull at the end of C on a frictionless plane. What is the tension in the string between the blocks B and C?

see the attachment,
for block C,
forward force - backward force = net force
F - T2 = ma { let acceleration of system is a }
10.2 - T2 = 2a ----------------(1)
for block B,
forward -backward = ma
T2 - T1 = ma
T2 - T1 =2a-----------------------(2)
for block A,
similarly ,
T1 = ma
T1 = 2a ---------------(3)
now, from eqns (1) , (2) and (3)
10.2 = 6a
a = 10.2/6 = 1.7 m/s^2
hence, tension in string b/w the blocks B and C = T2 = 4a
= 4*1.7 = 6.8 N
for block C,
forward force - backward force = net force
F - T2 = ma { let acceleration of system is a }
10.2 - T2 = 2a ----------------(1)
for block B,
forward -backward = ma
T2 - T1 = ma
