$A$ block of mass $70\,kg$ is kept on a rough horizontal surface $(\mu = 0.4)$. $A$ person is trying to pull the block by applying a horizontal force,but the block is not moving. The net contact force exerted by the surface on the block is $F$,then

  • A
    $F = 700\,N$
  • B
    $F = 280\,N$
  • C
    $700\,N \le F \le 754\,N$
  • D
    $F = 754\,N$
