A small block of mass M = 850 g is placed on top of a larger block of mass 3M which is placed on a level frictionless surface and is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 3.5 N/m. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is μ = 0.2. The lower block is pulled until the attached spring is stretched a distance D = 1.5 cm and released.Randomized VariablesM = 850 gD = 1.5 cmk = 3.5 N/ma) Assuming the blocks are stuck together, what is the maximum magnitude of acceleration amax of the blocks in terms of the variables in the problem statement? b) Calculate a value for the magnitude of the maximum acceleration amax of the blocks in m/s2. c) Write an equation for the largest spring constant kmax for which the upper block does not slip.
