Two blocks are connected by a massless string over a pulley, as shown at right. Block A has a mass of 20 kg, and Block B has mass m. The coefficient of static friction between Block A and the horizontal surface is μs = 0.30 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between Block A and the surface is μk = 0.20. The mass m of block B can be selected to be any value between 0 kg and 40 kg. The value of m is chosen, and the system is released from rest. This is repeated for many different values of m. 6) On the axes provided, graph the friction force Ff acting on block A vs. the mass m of block B. Note the value of important points on the graph such as discontinuities, maxima, and minima. Show your work.
