Answer:
24 N
Explanation:
= mass of the cube = 
Consider the three cubes together as one.
= mass of the three cubes together = 
= acceleration of the combination = 2 ms⁻²
= Force applied on the combination
Using Newton's second law

= Force by the left cube on the middle cube
Consider the forces acting on left cube, from the force diagram, we have

Answer:
The direction of the contact forces acting on a body is not necessarily perpendicular to the contact surface. The resolution of contact forces in two components i.e. perpendicular to contact surface and along surface. Perpendicular component is normal force and parallel component is friction.
