A block of weight `100N` lying on a horizontal surface just beging to when a horizontal to move when a horinzontal force of `25 N` acts on it Determine the coefficent of static friction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As the `25- N` force brings the block to the point of sliding , the frictional force `= mu _(s) N` from force diagram `n = 100 n`
`mu _(s) N`
`rArr mu _(s)= 0.25`
