Simple Harmonic Motion

Simple Harmonic Motion Problem


<div class="wp-block-create-block-problemblock">Two blocks (m = 1.8 kg and M = 10 kg)  and a spring ( k = 200 N/m )  are arranged on a horizontal frictionless surface.  The coefficient of static friction between the two blocks is 0.40.  What amplitude of simple harmonic motion of the spring-block system puts the smaller block on the verge of slipping over the larger block?<br /><img src="/old/images/physicsfrictionproblem.gif"  alt="physics friction simple harmonic motion problem "></div>
