A yo-yo is placed on a rough horizontal ...

A yo-yo is placed on a rough horizontal surface and a constant force `F`, which is less than its weight, pulls it vertically. Due to this

A

Friction force acts toward left, so it will move towards left

B

Friction force acts towards right so it will move towards right

C

It will move towards left so friction force acts towards right

D

It will move towards right so friction force acts towards right

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Due to anti-clockwise torque about C, the tendancy of slipping at bottom point is towards right. So friction acts towards left.
