Question

A man tries to pull a heavy load but is not able to move it at all. What could be the reason for this?

  1. The load is too heavy
  2. The person is not applying sufficient force
  3. The person is applying force in a wrong direction
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

If resultant force on object is zero then only it will he stationary.

The correct answer is: The person is not applying sufficient force


    • If the object is stationary then this can be due to following reason.
    • No Force is applied on the object. 
    • Resultant force is zero that is friction force or some other force  is sufficient to balance the force applied by the man so man's force is insufficient.
