A block of mass 0.1 is held against a wall applying a horizontal force of 5N on block. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is 0.5, the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the block is:

A

`2.5` N

B

`0.98` N

C

`4.9` N

D

`0.49` N

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
