Normal reaction between the surfaces
The material of the bodies
A block of mass $m$ is pressed against a vertical surface by a spring of unstretched length $l$ . If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu $. Choose the correct statement.
When two surfaces are coated with a lubricant, then they
How do static friction oppose motion ? Value of coefficient of friction depend on which factors ?
A pen of mass $m$ is lying on a piece of paper of mass $M$ placed on a rough table. If the coefficients of friction between the pen and paper and the paper and the table are $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$, respectively. Then, the minimum horizontal force with which the paper has to be pulled for the pen to start slipping is given by
A boy of mass $4\, kg$ is standing on a piece of wood having mass $5 \,kg$. If the coefficient of friction between the wood and the floor is $0.5,$ the maximum force that the boy can exert on the rope so that the piece of wood does not move from its place is ......$N.$(Round off to the Nearest Integer) [Take $g=10 \,ms ^{-2}$ ]
