4-2.Friction
easy
A block of mass $m$ is placed on the top of another block of mass $M$ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between them is $\mu $. What is the maximum acceleration with which the block $M$ may move so that m also moves along with it ?

A
$\mu g$
B
$g/\mu $
C
${\mu ^2}/g$
D
$g/{\mu ^2}$
Solution
${a_{\max }} = \frac{{{F_{ \max }}}}{m} = \frac{{\mu mg}}{m} = \mu g$
