$A$ block $B$ is pushed momentarily along a horizontal surface with an initial velocity $V$. If $\mu$ is the coefficient of sliding friction between $B$ and the surface,the block $B$ will come to rest after a time:

  • A
    $\frac{g\mu}{V}$
  • B
    $\frac{g}{V}$
  • C
    $\frac{V}{g}$
  • D
    $\frac{V}{\mu g}$
