The frictional force acting on $1 \,kg$ block is .................. $N$

A mass of $4\; kg$ rests on a horizontal plane. The plane is gradually inclined until at an angle $\theta= 15^o$ with the horizontal, the mass just begins to slide. What is the coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface ?

$Assertion$ : On a rainy day it is difficult to drive a car or bus at high speed.
$Reason$ : The value of coefficient of friction is lowered due to wetting of the surface

A block of mass $5\, kg$ is on a rough horizontal surface and is at rest. Now a force of $24\, N $is imparted to it with negligible impulse. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is $0.4$ and $g = 9.8\,m/{s^2}$, then the acceleration of the block is ........ $m/s^2$

A horizontal force $12 \,N$ pushes a block weighing $1/2\, kg$ against a vertical wall.  The  coefficient of static friction between the wall and the block is $0.5$ and the coefficient of  kinetic friction is $0.35.$ Assuming that the block is not moving  initially. Which one of the following choices is correct (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$)
