An automobile moving with a speed of reaches an upward inclined road of angle its engine becomes switch off. If the coefficient of friction is , then how much distance will automobile move before coming to rest?

Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
Given, initial speed,

Here, work done in moving up the inclined road of the vehicle
\left(mgsin\theta + F\right)s = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^{2}
\left(mgsin\theta + \mu mgcos\theta\right) \times s = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^{2}s = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mu^{2}}{mg\left(sin\theta + \mu cos\theta\right)} = \dfrac{u2}{2g\left(sin\theta + \mu cos\theta\right)}= \dfrac{10 \times 10}{2 \times 10 \times \left(\sin 30 ° + 0 . 1\cos 30 °\right)} = 8 . 53m$
