Question

..1 SUN Mobile T+9:16 MasteringPhysics: HW7 Due: 08/04/2018 session.masteringphysics.com A block with mass M rests on a frictionless surface and is connected to a horizontal spring of force constant k. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall (the figure Tap image to zoom A second block with mass m rests on top of the first block The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is s Part A Find the maximum amplitude of oscillation such that the top block will not slip on the bottom block. Express your answer in terms of the variables m, M, k, fis, and appropriate constants.

Explanation / Answer

Here Maximum applied force is balanced by restoring force of spring

(m+M)*usg =KA

=>A=(m+M)usg/K
