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
    $S = \frac{v^2}{2\mu g}$

$A$ horizontal force of $4\,N$ is needed to keep a block of mass $0.5\,kg$ sliding on a horizontal surface with a constant speed. The coefficient of sliding friction must be: $[g = 10\,m/s^2]$

For the given figure,find the acceleration of the $40\, kg$ block in $m/s^2$. (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

$A$ 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 $g=10 \,m/s^2$):

$A$ block of mass $5 \ kg$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface having a coefficient of friction $0.5$. If a horizontal force of $60 \ N$ is acting on it,then the acceleration of the block is (Acceleration due to gravity,$g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$). (in $ms^{-2}$)

The blocks shown in the figure move with a constant velocity of $10 \, m/s$ towards the right. All surfaces in contact are rough. The friction force applied by the ground on block $B$ is ........ $N$.
