Two blocks of masses $m$ and $2m$ kept on a frictionless horizontal surface are connected by a massless string. Two horizontal forces $F_1 = (4.2t) \text{ N}$ and $F_2 = (7.5t) \text{ N}$,where '$t$' is time in seconds,are acting on the system as shown in the figure. The time at which the tension in the string between the two blocks becomes $10.6 \text{ N}$ is $t$ seconds.
