JEE Main 2022 · 27 Jul · Shift 1, Physics question 34

A bag is gently dropped on a conveyor belt moving at a speed of 2 m/s. The coefficient of friction between the conveyor belt and bag is 0.4. Initially, the bag slips on the belt before it stops due to friction. The distance travelled by the bag on the belt during slipping motion, is : [Take g = 10 m/s−2^{-2}]

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Friction gives a=μg=4a=\mu g=4 m s−2^{-2}, and the bag reaches 2 m/s in 0.5 s.

Slip relative to the belt. The belt moves 1 m and the bag 0.5 m, so the bag slips 0.50.5 m on the belt.

(B)
