MCQ
A body is moving along a rough horizontal surface with an initial velocity $6\,\,m/s.$ If the body comes to rest after travelling $9\, m$, then the coefficient of sliding friction will be
  • A
    $0.4$
  • $0.2$
  • C
    $0.6$
  • D
    $0.8$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$0.2$
b
(b) We know $s = \frac{{{u^2}}}{{2\mu \;g}}$

$\therefore \mu = \frac{{{u^2}}}{{2gs}} = \frac{{{{(6)}^2}}}{{2 \times 10 \times 9}} = 0.2$
