A 3.0 kg3.0\,\text{kg} block rests on a table. A second 3.0 kg3.0\,\text{kg} block is stacked on top. The system is at rest. Consider the free-body diagram of the top block only. Forces on the top block are its weight downward and a normal force upward from the bottom block. Based on Newton's Laws, which statement is most consistent? Neglect any horizontal forces.
