detailed solution

Correct option is A

Fl=μmgcosθFl=0.7×2×10×cos30=12N

(approximately) but when the block is lying on the inclined plane then component of weight down the plane = mgsinθ

=2×9.8×sin30=9.8N, It means the body is stationary so static friction will work on it, Static friction = applied force = 9.8N
