Two blocks (m = 1.22 kg and M = 8.73 kg) and a spring (k = 344 N/m) are arranged on a horizontal, frictionless surface as shown in Fig. 17-29. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is 0.42. Find the maximum possible amplitude of the simple harmonic motion if no slippage is to occur between the blocks.
