A wooden block of mass 2 kg rests on a soft horizontal floor. When an iron cylinder of mass 25 kg is placed on top of the block, the floor yields steadily and the block and the cylinder together go down with an acceleration of 0.1 m/s^2. What is the action of the block on the floor (i) before and (ii) after the floor yields? (Take, g = 10 m/s^2). Identify the action-reaction pairs in the problem.
