Answer:

Answer: B. 49 N

Explanation:

Friction Force

When an object is at rest on a rough surface, it encounters a friction force that opposes motion.

The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:

[tex]Fr=\mu_k N[/tex]

Where [tex]\mu_k[/tex] is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force.  

If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:

N = W = m.g

Thus, the friction force is:

[tex]Fr=\mu_k W[/tex]

We are given the coefficient of static friction [tex]\mu_k=0.5[/tex] and the mass of the object m=10 Kg. The minimum force needed to make it start moving is the maximum friction force:

Fr=0.5*10*9.8

Fr = 49 N
