$A$ block is kept on a rough horizontal surface. The acceleration of the block increases from $6 \ m/s^2$ to $11 \ m/s^2$ when the horizontal force acting on it increases from $20 \ N$ to $30 \ N$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is (Acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):

  • A
    $0.2$
  • B
    $0.3$
  • C
    $0.4$
  • D
    $0.5$

$A$ block of mass $M$ is moving on a rough horizontal surface with momentum $P$. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu$. The distance covered by the block before it stops is $[g = \text{acceleration due to gravity}]$.

$A$ block of mass $3 \,kg$ is pressed against a vertical wall by applying a force $F$ at an angle $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal as shown in the figure. As a result, the block is prevented from falling down. If the coefficient of static friction between the block and wall is $\mu = \sqrt{3}$, then the value of $F$ is (use $g=10 \,m/s^2$):
