    A block of mass 2 kg is kept on the floor. The coefficient of static friction is 0.4. If a force of 2.5 N is applied on the block as shown in the figure, the frictional force between the block and the floor will be

    A)  2.5 N              

    B)  5 N

    C)  7.84 N             

    D)  10 N

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Limiting frictional force \[{{F}_{s}}={{\mu }_{s}}R\] \[={{\mu }_{s}}mg\] \[=0.4\times 2\times 9.8=7.84\text{ }N\]
