$A$ wooden block of mass $M$ resting on a rough horizontal surface is pulled with a force $F$ at an angle $\phi$ with the horizontal. If $\mu$ is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface,then the acceleration of the block is:

  • A
    $\frac{F}{M}(\cos \phi + \mu \sin \phi) - \mu g$
  • B
    $F \sin \phi / M$
  • C
    $\mu F \cos \phi$
  • D
    $\mu F \sin \phi$
