Two block A and B are connected to a spring (force constant k = 480 N/m) and placed on a horizontal surface. Another block C is placed on B. The coefficient of friction between the floor and block A is mu_1 = 0.5 , whereas there is no friction between B and the floor. Coefficient of friction between C and B is mu_2 = 0.85 . Masses of the blocks are M_A = 50 kg, M_B = 28 kg and M_C = 2 kg . The system is held at rest with spring compressed by x_0 = 0.5 m . After the system is released, find the maximum speed of block B during subsequent motion.
