[figure] Two blocks of masses m and M, (M > m), are placed on a frictionless table as shown in figure. A massless spring with spring constant k is attached with the lower block. If the system is slightly displaced and released, then ( = coefficient of friction between the two blocks) Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

1. B, C, D Only
2. C, D, E Only
3. A, B, D Only
4. A, B, C Only
