A block of mass $M$ is being pulled along rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu $. If another block of mass $M/2$ is placed on the block and it is again pulled on the surface, the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface will be
  • A$\mu $
  • B$3\mu /2$
  • C$2\mu $
  • D$5\mu /2$
