The coefficient of static friction between a wooden block of mass $0.5\, kg$ and a vertical rough wall is $0.2$. The magnitude of the horizontal force that should be applied on the block to keep it adhered to the wall will be $N$ $\left[ g = 10\, m/s^2 \right]$.

The blocks $A$ and $B$ are arranged as shown in the figure. The pulley is frictionless. The mass of $A$ is $10 \, kg$. The coefficient of friction of $A$ with the horizontal surface is $0.20$. The minimum mass of $B$ to start the motion will be...... $kg$.

$A$ block of mass $M$ is placed on a horizontal surface and it is tied with an inextensible string to a block of mass $m$,as shown in the figure. $A$ block of mass $m_0$ is also placed on $M$. If $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction between the block $M$ and the horizontal surface,then the minimum value of $m_0$ required to keep the block $m$ stationary is

Which of the following is a self-adjusting force?

If a ladder weighing $250\,N$ is placed against a smooth vertical wall and the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the floor is $0.3$,what is the maximum force of friction available at the point of contact between the ladder and the floor?

$A$ block of mass $M$ is held against a rough vertical wall by pressing it with a finger. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the wall is $\mu$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,calculate the minimum force required to be applied by the finger to hold the block against the wall.
