### Problem Description:A large block is being pushed against a smaller block such that the smaller block remains elevated while being pushed. The mass of the smaller block is \( m = 0.65 \, \text{kg} \). It is found through repeated experimentation that the blocks need to have a minimum acceleration of \( a = 12 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) in order for the smaller block to remain elevated and not slide down. What is the coefficient of static friction \( \mu_s \) between the two blocks?#### Calculation:A user attempted to calculate the coefficient of static friction and entered:\[\mu_s = 1.22\]This answer was marked as Incorrect.### Diagram Explanation:The diagram on the right shows:- A horizontal surface.- A large block is shown in green with a smaller block on top of it to the right, labeled with mass \( m \).- An arrow labeled \( \vec{a} \) points to the right, indicating the direction of acceleration.This setup demonstrates that the blocks move together to the right at a constant acceleration, preventing the smaller block from sliding due to static friction between the blocks. The challenge is to find the correct static friction coefficient required for this setup.

A large block is being pushed against a smaller block such that the smaller block remains elevated while being pushed. The mass of the smaller block is m = 0.65 kg. It is found through repeated experimentation that the blocks need to have a minimum acceleration of a = 12 m/s² in order for the smaller block to remain elevated and not slide down. What is the coefficient of static friction µg between the two blocks? Hs = 1.22 m 15↑
