$A$ girl holds a book of mass $m$ against a vertical wall with a horizontal force $F$ using her finger,so that the book does not move. The frictional force on the book by the wall is

  • A
    $F$ and along the finger but pointing towards the girl
  • B
    $mg$ and upwards
  • C
    $\mu F$ upwards,where $\mu$ is the coefficient of static friction
  • D
    equal and opposite to the resultant of $F$ and $mg$

$A$ uniform chain of total length $L$ is at rest,partially on an incline of angle $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ and partially hanging vertically. The coefficient of friction between the chain and the incline is $\mu = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}$. Find the ratio $\frac{L_{\max}}{L_{\min}}$,where $L_{\max}$ is the maximum length of the chain on the incline and $L_{\min}$ is the minimum length of the chain on the incline such that the chain remains at rest.
