Q.

A body of mass m is kept on a rough horizontal surface (coefficient of friction = μ). Horizontal force is applied on the body, but it does not move. The resultant of normal reaction and the frictional force acting on the object is given F, where F is                                    [NEET (Odisha) 2019]

Detailed Solution

The situation can be drawn asThe frictional force, f = μN = μ mg                   (∵ N=mg)From free body diagram, the resultant force is|F|=N2+f2      ≤  (mg)2 + (μmg)2 = mg1 + μ2This is the minimum force required to move the object. But as the body is not moving.∴  F ≤ mg 1 + μ2
