Manipal MET2010PhysicsMotion in One Dimension
A body is coming with a velocity of 72 ~km / h on a rough horizontal surface of coefficient of friction 0.5 . If the acceleration due to gravity is 10 ~m / s ^2 , find the minimum distance it can be stopped.
Options
- A400 m
- B40 m
- C0.40 m
- D4 m
Correct answer
B. 40 m
Step-by-step solution
aligned & Given, u=72 ~km / h =20 ~m / s & a= g=0.5 10 ~m / s ^2 & From, v^2=u^2-2 a s aligned (0)^2=(20)^2-2 0.5 10 s s= 20 20 2 0.5 10 or s=40 ~m
