Consider a small block sliding down an inclined plane of inclination 30° with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction is μ=23x, where x is the distance (in meter) through which the mass slides down. The distance covered by the mass before it stops is

  1. A 32 m
  2. B 3 m
  3. C 23 m
  4. D 23 m
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3 m

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

By equilibrium of block perpendicular to the incline, N=mgcosθ. So kinetic friction is, fk=μN=μmgcosθ. Work done by constant force is given as, W=FScosθ. Let distance covered by the mass is x before coming at rest. So,…
