A block of mass $70\,kg$ is kept on a rough horizontal surface $(\mu = 0.4)$. A person is trying to pull the block by applying a horizontal force, but the block is not moving. The net contact force exerted by the surface on the block is $F$, then

  • A

    $F = 700\,N$

  • B

    $F = 280\,N$

  • C

    $700\,N \le F \le 754\,N$

  • D

    $F = 754\,N$
