The maximum static frictional force is

$A$ block of $1\, kg$ is stopped against a wall by applying a force $F$ perpendicular to the wall. If $\mu = 0.2$,then the minimum value of $F$ will be ....... $N$.

$A$ force $F = mg$ is acting on a block of mass $m$ as shown in the figure. The pushing of the block along the surface is possible if:

$A$ block of mass $4 \text{ kg}$ is placed on a horizontal surface having coefficients of static and kinetic friction as $0.5$ and $0.4$ respectively. If a force of $4 \text{ N}$ is applied parallel to the horizontal surface, then the force of friction acting on the body will be $\left[g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2\right]$ (in $\text{ N}$)

$A$ $10\, kg$ block is placed on a horizontal surface as shown. If an external horizontal force $F = 50\, N$ is applied,find the friction force acting on the block. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)
