A horizontal force $12 \,N$ pushes a block weighing $1/2\, kg$ against a vertical wall.  The  coefficient of static friction between the wall and the block is $0.5$ and the coefficient of  kinetic friction is $0.35.$ Assuming that the block is not moving  initially. Which one of the following choices is correct (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$)

To avoid slipping while walking on ice, one should take smaller steps because of the

A body of mass $\mathrm{m}$ 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 normal reaction and the frictional force acting on the object is given by $\mathrm{F},$ where $\mathrm{F}$ is

A block of mass $m$ (initially at rest) is sliding up (in vertical direction) against a rough vertical wall with the help of a force $F$ whose magnitude is constant but direction is changing. $\theta  = {\theta _0}t$  where $t$ is time in sec. At $t$ = $0$ , the force is in vertical upward direction and then as time passes its direction is getting along normal, i.e., $\theta  = \frac{\pi }{2}$ .The value of $F$ so that the block comes to rest when $\theta  = \frac{\pi }{2}$ , is 

A block of mass $50 \,kg$ can slide on a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $0.6$. The least force of pull acting at an angle of $30^°$ to the upward drawn vertical which causes the block to just slide is ........ $N$
