A book of mass 0.5 kg lies on the surface of a table. The coefficient of friction between the book and the surface of the table is 0.6. Calculate the force required to just move it. (Take g `=10 m s^(-2)`)
Another identical book is kept on the book on the table.How is the force needed to move it affected?
