$A$ $20\, kg$ block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface. $A$ horizontal force of $75\, N$ is required to set the block in motion. After it is in motion,a horizontal force of $60\, N$ is required to keep the block moving with constant speed. The coefficient of static friction is

  • A
    $0.38$
  • B
    $0.44$
  • C
    $0.52$
  • D
    $0.6$
