Question 68
XE-DMCQ1 markNeeds review
A block of weight W, placed on a surface, is subjected to a horizontal force P as shown in the figure. The line of action of force P passes through the center-of-gravity of the block. The magnitude of P is such that the block remains at rest. If N is the resultant normal reaction exerted by the surface, and F is the frictional force acting on the bottom surface of the block, then which of the following represents the correct free body diagram of the block?
