Detailed Solution

A man thinks to remain horizontally in equilibrium against two vertical walls as

shown the requirement is weight w= f1+f2

Question Image

 

To fulfill the requirement he has to push both walls with same force F and should avail

            horizontal component of reaction force (F) as frictional forces

            f1=f2 

            So there must present friction on both walls

            i.e. the wall must have rough surface.

            So among the given statements we have 1 and 3 as correct
