Q.

In the figure shown, a block of weight 10 N resting on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface μs = 0.4 . A force of 3.5 N will keep the block in uniform motion, once it has been set in motion. A horizontal force of 3 N is applied to the block, then the block will

View Answer

Correct choice: C

Explanation:

F1 μ3 R = 0.4 × mg=0.4×10 i.e. minimum 4N force is required to start the motion of a body. But applied force is only 3N. So the block will not move.
