A body is moving along the horizontal surface with a velocity of \(4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). If the coefficient of kinetic friction is \(0.2\), the distance travelled by body before coming to rest is \(\left(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)\)

  1. A \(8 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(16 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(6 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f=\mu \mathrm{mg}\).
\(\therefore a=-f / m=-\frac{\mu m g}{m}=-\mu g=-(0.2) 10=-2\)
\(v^{2}=u^{2}+2 a s\)
\(s=4\)
