JEE Main 2022 · 24 Jun · Shift 1, Physics question 36

A block of mass 10 kg starts sliding on a surface with an initial velocity of 9.8 ms−19.8\ \mathrm{ms^{-1}}. The coefficient of friction between the surface and block is 0.5. The distance covered by the block before coming to rest is :

[use g=9.8 ms−2g=9.8\ \mathrm{ms^{-2}}]

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Deceleration. a=μg=0.5×9.8=4.9a=\mu g=0.5\times9.8=4.9 m s−2^{-2}.

Distance. s=v22a=9.822×4.9=9.8s=\dfrac{v^2}{2a}=\dfrac{9.8^2}{2\times4.9}=9.8 m.

(B)
