Problem
In a laboratory, pairs of values of limiting friction Flim and normal reaction N for a wooden block on a table are plotted. The best-fit straight line passes through the origin and has a slope of 0.35. This slope numerically represents
(a) sin of the angle of repose for the block–table pair
(b) coefficient of kinetic friction between block and table
(c) coefficient of static friction between block and table
(d) reciprocal of the coefficient of static friction between block and table
