A car begins from rest at time , and then accelerates along a straight track during the interval (0 \lt t \leq 2 ) and thereafter with constant velocity as shown in the graph. A coin is initially at rest on the floor of the car. At (t=1 ), the coin begins to slip and its stops slipping at (t=3 ). The coefficient of static friction between the floor and the coin is (\left(\mathrm{~m}\mathrm{s}^$2\right))

Options
- A0.2
- B0.3
- C0.4
- D0.5
Correct answer
C. 0.4
Step-by-step solution
- From the graph, for (0 \leq t \leq 2 s, v=2 t^{2} \Rightarrow a=d v / d t=4 t).
- The coin begins to slip at (t=1 ), so limiting static friction provides the needed acceleration then: (1)=4 / \mathrms^{2}=\mu 4 / 10=0.4).
