A conveyor belt is moving at a constant speed of 2 ~m / s . A box is gently dropped on it. The coefficient of friction between them is =0.5 . The distance that the box will move relative to belt before coming to rest on it taking g=10 ~ms ⁻² , is
Options
- A1.2 ~m
- B0.6 ~m
- Czero
- D0.4 ~m
Correct answer
D. 0.4 ~m
Step-by-step solution
Force, F= m g Retardation of the block on the belt a= F m = m g m = g From, aligned v^2 & =u^2+2 a s 0 & =(2)^2-2( g) s s & = 4 2 0.5 10 =0.4 ~m aligned
