参考答案:
D

Explanation:
The free-body diagrams of the boxes:
The maximum value of the force of friction Ff can be calculated as follows;
- Ff=μsFN=μsmg=(0.5)(3)g=1.5g
When Newton's Second Law is applied to the mass of 3kg;
Fnet=ma
1.5g=3a
0.5g=a
To move without slipping, both of the masses must have the same acceleration. Treating both boxes as one system
Hence, the correct answer is D.
