What do you mean by force of friction?

Think of a heavy box lying on the ground with a rope attached for pulling. Until you try to pull the box it doesn't actually resist you. Once you start pulling on the rope, and even if you are unable to move the box, it is as if there is a force pulling against you. This is the force of friction. The friction between the box and the ground sets up this force.

Which pulley system can make work easier?

A pulley halves the force required to lift a load, but doubles the length of rope or cable. So if you had a 10lb. weight attached to a rope, and were pulling the rope upward, you would need 10lbs. of force to lift it. However, if you had a pulley attached to a beam overhead, and were pulling down on the rope, you would only need 5lbs. of force to move the weight, but you would need to pull twice as much rope to get the weight to move the same distance.

If a book is hanging from a rope are the forces balanced or unbalanced and why?

The forces at work are balanced. Gravity is pulling the book (and the rope) down, and the rope exerts an equal and opposite force to keep the book suspended.
