Question

Choose the correct answer.

The rough surface of a horizontal table offers a definite maximum opposing force to initiate the motion of a block along with the table, which is proportional to the resultant normal force given by the table. Forces F₁ and F₂ act at the same angle T with the horizontal and both are just initiating the sliding motion of the block along with the table. Force F₁ is a pulling force while the force F2 is a pushing force. F₂ > F₁, because

Options

• Component of F₂ adds up to weight to increase the normal reaction

• Component of F₁ adds up to weight to increase the normal reaction.

• Component of F₂ adds up to the opposing force.

• Component of F₁ adds up to the opposing force.

Answer 1

Component of F₂ adds up to weight to increase the normal reaction
