$A$ block placed on a rough horizontal surface is pulled by a horizontal force $F$. Let $f$ be the force applied by the rough surface on the block. Plot a graph of $f$ versus $F$.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is kept on a rough horizontal surface (coefficient of friction $= \mu$). $A$ horizontal force is applied on the body,but it does not move. The resultant of the normal reaction and the frictional force acting on the object is given by $F$,where $F$ is:

What can be inferred from the relation $f_S \leqslant \mu_S N$?

$A$ 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
