Static friction
Question

A block of mass m is stationary on a horizontal surface. It is connected with a string which has no tension. The coefficient of friction between the block and surface is m. Then, the frictional force between the block and surface is:

Easy
Solution

fs = μ mg, F < fs. If applied force is less than limiting friction force then frictional force is equal to the applied force.f = F
