Dear student,
Block B together with block A is lying on rough surface with coefficient of friction=0.5.
So, it will be able to accelerate if force applied is greater than (coefficient of friction)*(mA+mB)*g=0.5*10*10=50 N.
But force applied is only 25 N which is less than 50 N.
So there will be no acceleration and frictional force between A and B wont arise.
So frictional force= 0 [Ans]
