Question

a body weight 5n is placed on a wooden table.how much force is required to set it into motion?co efficient of friction between table and body is 0.3​

Answer 1

Answer:

The maximum friction that can act on the body is given by :

f = μmg = 0.3 (5) = 1.5 N

So we require a force greater than 1.5 N to set the body in motion.
