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 = 0.30 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 m smaller block to remain elevated and not slide down. What is the coefficient of static friction µ, between the two blocks? Hs =
