Question

**** IS MY ANSWER CORRECT? ***Suppose you push your physics book against a wall hard enough to keep it from moving. Does the friction force on the book point (a) into the wall, (b) out of the wall, (c) up, (d) down, or (e) is there no friction force? Explain.

Answer 1

There is not friction force. Friction force refers to the an object moving and the friction not allowing it to move, however in this case the wall is what is keeping it from moving not friction.
