NEET Physics Friction MCQ Question
A block of mass 5 kg is placed on a rough horizontal surface. The block is initially at rest. A horizontal force of 10 N is applied to the block. If the static friction coefficient between the block and the surface is 0.3, what is the force of friction acting on the block?
10 N
15 N
5 N
0 N
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The maximum static friction force is N. Since the applied force (10 N) is less than , the force of friction is equal to the applied force.
