NEET Physics Friction MCQ Question
Consider a diagram showing a book at rest on a horizontal table. Identify the force responsible for keeping the book in equilibrium despite the force of gravity acting on it.

Normal force
Frictional force
Tension force
Applied force
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, the book at rest on the table is subject to the gravitational force and the normal force, which cancel each other out, resulting in no net force.
