Static friction is a self-adjusting force.
The limiting value of friction up to which the body stays at rest till it starts moving is given by, F
s
=μmg
where μ is the coefficient of static friction.
Below that limit, the frictional force is equal to the force applied.
Here F
s
=0.8×4×10=32N ; g=10m/s
2
Whereas force applied is 19N less than the limiting value of friction.
Hence Frictional force is 19N.
