A body will move when it is able to overcome the limiting friction and remains at rest when the applied force is less than the limiting friction THEN WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENS WHEN THE APPLIED FORCE IS EQUAL TO THE LIMITING FRICTION

  1. Then there will be no alive world, it will only become a showpiece in God's house or a model on which he might create a world some other time.


  2. the body will not move

    it doesnot under go any change


  3. It won't move if they're completely balanced.

    Balanced forces mean no change in velocity or direction (Newton's 1st law). If it is already at rest, it won't begin to speed up (i.e. move). It will be on "the verge", so any slight increase in force will give rise to motion. Maybe a bit of wind?!

  4. then the object will be at rest.

    Think of it like Two equally strong people pushing a swing from opposite sides, the swing won't move.

  5. You must understand that friction is only a type of reaction to your external aplication of force.

    But as we know there exists a limit until which friction can give this reaction force, and this limit is what we call Limiting friction.

    Thus the body in your question would still, just, remain in a state of equilibrium, i.e. remain stationary.
