Static Friction On Stacked Blocks
Two blocks with masses m₁ and m₂ (where m₁ > m₂) are stacked vertically on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between all surfaces is μs. What is the maximum horizontal force that can be applied to the upper block without causing it to slip relative to the lower block?
A
μs(m₁-m₂)g
B
μs(m₁+m₂)g
C
μsm₁g
D
μsm₂g
