Consider a book on a horizontal table, with a tension force of 10.0 N acting on it. The magnitude of the normal force of the table on the book is 22.0 N. The coefficient of static friction is 0.42. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.35. Which force has the least magnitude?
A. Friction force on the book.
B. Weight of the book.
C. Tension force on the book.
D. (Not enough information is given to determine this.)
