$A$ person initially at rest starts walking towards the east without slipping or skidding. What is the type of friction acting on the person from the ground, and in which direction does the frictional force act?

$A$ heavy box is to be dragged along a rough horizontal floor. Person $A$ pushes it at an angle of $30^\circ$ from the horizontal and requires a minimum force $F_A$. Person $B$ pulls the box at an angle of $60^\circ$ from the horizontal and needs a minimum force $F_B$. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the floor is $\mu = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{5}$,find the ratio $\frac{F_A}{F_B}$.

The coefficient of friction between an object and a surface,if we need to move an object of weight $150 \ N$ on a horizontal surface with a force of $75 \ N$,is

Calculate the maximum acceleration (in $m s^{-2}$) of a moving car so that a body lying on the floor of the car remains stationary. The coefficient of static friction between the body and the floor is $0.15$ $(g = 10 m s^{-2})$.

$A$ $10\, kg$ block is placed on a horizontal surface as shown. If an external horizontal force $F = 50\, N$ is applied,find the friction force acting on the block. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

What is friction? What is impending motion?
