$A$ lift is moving downwards with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity. $A$ body of mass $m$ kept on the floor of the lift is pulled horizontally. If the coefficient of friction is $\mu$,then the frictional resistance offered by the body is:

  • A
    $mg$
  • B
    $\mu mg$
  • C
    $2\mu mg$
  • D
    Zero
