Calculate the stopping distance of a vehicle of mass $M$ moving with velocity $v$ on a straight road. (Where $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road.)

  • A
    $S = \frac{v}{2\mu g}$
  • B
    $S = \frac{v^2}{\mu g}$
  • C
    $S = \frac{v}{\mu g}$
  • D
    $S = \frac{v^2}{2\mu g}$

$A$ block of $7\,kg$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface and is pulled by a variable force $F$ (in $N$) $= 5t$,where $t$ is time in seconds,at an angle of $37^{\circ}$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface is $\mu = 1$. If the force starts acting at $t = 0\,s$,find the time at which the block starts to slide. (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

$A$ body of weight $64 \,N$ is pushed with just enough force to start it moving across a horizontal floor and the same force continues to act afterwards. If the coefficients of static and dynamic friction are $0.6$ and $0.4$ respectively, the acceleration of the body is (Acceleration due to gravity $= g$)

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

$A$ body of mass $10 \,kg$ is kept on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the body and the surface is $0.5$. $A$ horizontal force of $60 \,N$ is applied on the body. The resulting acceleration of the body is about

What is the maximum value of the force $F$ such that the block shown in the arrangement does not move? (in $N$)
