Choose the correct options The rough surface of a horizontal table offers a definite maximum opposing force to initiate the notion of a block along the table, which is the motion of a block along the table, which is proportional to the resultant normal force given by the table. Forces F_1 and F_2 act at the same angle theta with the horizontal and both are just initiating the slide motion of the block along the table. Force F_1 is a pulling force while the force F_2 is a pushing force. F_2>F_1 , because
