Consider the situation shown in figure. The horizontal surface below the bigger block is smooth. The coefficient of friction between the blocks is mu. Find the minimum force F that can be applied in order to keep the smaller blocks at rest with respect to the bigger block.

  1. open parentheses M plus 2 m close parentheses fraction numerator g open parentheses 1 minus mu close parentheses over denominator open parentheses 1 plus mu close parentheses end fraction    
  2. open parentheses M plus m close parentheses fraction numerator g open parentheses 1 minus mu close parentheses over denominator open parentheses 1 plus mu close parentheses end fraction    
  3. open parentheses M plus 2 m close parentheses fraction numerator g open parentheses 1 plus mu close parentheses over denominator open parentheses 1 minus mu close parentheses end fraction    
  4. open parentheses M minus 2 m close parentheses fraction numerator g open parentheses 1 minus mu close parentheses over denominator open parentheses 1 plus mu close parentheses end fraction    

The correct answer is: open parentheses M plus 2 m close parentheses fraction numerator g open parentheses 1 minus mu close parentheses over denominator open parentheses 1 plus mu close parentheses end fraction
