Block $A$ of mass $3 \ kg$ rests on another block $B$ of mass $7 \ kg$. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.4$, while the coefficient of friction between $B$ and the horizontal floor on which $B$ rests is $0.55$. Find the force of friction between $A$ and $B$ when a horizontal force of $50 \ N$ is applied on block $B$. (Use $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $N$)
