In the figure masses `m_1`, `m_2` and M are 20 kg, 5kg and 50kg respectively. The coefficient of friction between M and ground is zero. The coefficient of friction between `m_1` and M and that between `m_2` and ground is 0.3. The pulleys and the strings are massless. The string is perfectly horizontal between `P_1` and `m_1` and also between `P_2` and `m_2`. The string is perfectly vertical between `P_1` and `P_2`. An external horizontal force F is applied to the mass M. Take `g=10m//s^2`.

(a) Draw a free body diagram for mass M, clearly showing all the forces.
(b) Let the magnitude of the force of friction between `m_1` and M be `f_1` and that between `m_2` and ground be `f_2`. For a particular F it is found that `f_1=2f_2`. Find `f_1` and `f_2`. Write equations of motion of all the masses. Find F, tension in the spring and acceleration of masses.
