A 1.2 kg block slides along a frictionless surface at 1.2 m/s. a second block, sliding at a faster 4.4 m/s, collides with the first from behind and sticks to it. the final velocity of the combined blocks is 3.2 m/s.

Describe how the size of the force of friction depends on the size of the normal force?
