4-2.Friction
hard
A block of weight $W$ is kept on a rough horizontal surface (friction coefficient $\mu$). Two forces $W/2$ each are applied as shown in the figure. Choose the $CORRECT$ statement :-

A
for $\mu > \frac{\sqrt 3}{5}$ block will move
B
for $\mu > \frac{\sqrt 3}{5}$, work done by friction force is zero (in ground frame).
C
$\mu > \frac{\sqrt 3}{5}$ friction force will do positive work (in ground frame)
D
for $\mu > \frac{\sqrt 3}{5}$ block will move
Solution
$\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{W}+\frac{\mathrm{W}}{2}-\frac{\mathrm{W}}{4}=\frac{5}{4} \mathrm{W}$
$\frac{5}{4} \mathrm{W} \cdot \mu=\frac{\mathrm{W}}{2} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \Rightarrow \mu=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{5}$
