The three blocks shown in the picture are at rest. The coefficient of friction between the 3.00 kg block on the table and the 2.00 kg on the ramp is the same. The block H has the maximum mass that keeps the system at rest. a) Solve for the coefficient of friction. (ans: μ = 0.471) b) Solve for the maximum mass of the Block H that keeps the system at rest. (ans: 2.27 kg)

  1. The three blocks shown in the picture are at rest. The coefficient of friction between the 3.00 k g block on the table and the 2.00 k g on the ramp is the same. The block H has the maximum mass that keeps the system at rest. a) Solve for the coefficient of friction. (ans: μ = 0.471 ) b) Solve for the maximum mass of the Block H that keeps the system at rest. (ans: 2.27 k g )
