A block $P$ of mass $m$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. A block $Q$ of same mass is placed over the block $P$ and the coefficient of static friction between them is ${\mu _S}$. A spring of spring constant $K$ is attached to block $Q$. The blocks are displaced together to a distance $A$ and released. The upper block oscillates without slipping over the lower block. The maximum frictional force between the block is
  • A$0$
  • B$K$
  • C$\frac{{KA}}{2}$
  • D$\mu g$
