# Three blocks of masses \(5 \, \text{kg}\), \(4 \, \text{kg}\), and \(3 \, \text{kg}\) are placed side by side in that order. A \(25 \, \text{N}\) force applied on the \(5 \, \text{kg}\) block accelerates all three blocks together to the right. Find the acceleration of the blocks and the normal force the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) block exerts on the \(3 \, \text{kg}\) block.

Three blocks of masses \(5 \, \text{kg}\), \(4 \, \text{kg}\), and \(3 \, \text{kg}\) are placed side by side in that order. A \(25 \, \text{N}\) force applied on the \(5 \, \text{kg}\) block accelerates all three blocks together to the right. Find the acceleration of the blocks and the normal force the \(4 \, \text{kg}\) block exerts on the \(3 \, \text{kg}\) block.
