Randall D. Knight β€” Newton's Third Law: Problem Problem_42

The static and kinetic friction coefficients of the surface in FIGURE P7.42 are 0.90 and 0.50, respectively. The hanging mass is increased to the point where the two stacked masses are on the verge of sliding. If the top mass \(m\) is then removed, what is the acceleration of mass \(2m\)? The rope is massless, and the pulley is massless and frictionless.
