Let both blocks move together with acceleration a. making $FBD$ of $m-2$ block for vertical balance

$M=M_2\,g$

$\Rightarrow fr =\mu M _2\,g$

$\Rightarrow a =\frac{ fr }{ M _2}=\mu g \ldots \ldots .(1)$

making FBD of second block

$F-f r=M_1 a$

$F-\mu m_2 g=M_1(\mu g )$

$\Rightarrow F=\mu\left[M_1+M_2\right]\,g$
