On a block of mass 10 kg a child applied a force of 5 N .Explain the position of block and kind of friction acts on it .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
No, the block does not move ,static friction .

No, the block does not move because for 5 N applied force the same amount of static friction force acts on the body in opposite direction. Therefore, the net force acting on the body is zero
