$A$ 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
    $\frac{2 \mu Mg}{P}$
  • B
    $\frac{P}{2 \mu Mg}$
  • C
    $\frac{P^{2}}{2 \mu M^{2} g}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 \mu M^{2} g}{P^{2}}$

$A$ child weighing $25 \,kg$ slides down a rope hanging from a branch of a tall tree. If the force of friction acting against him is $200 \,N$,the acceleration of the child is ........... $m/s^2$ $\left(g=10 \,m/s^2\right)$.

$A$ block of mass $m$ rests on a rough horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is $\mu$. $A$ force $F = mg$ acting at an angle $\theta$ with the vertical side of the block pulls it. In which of the following cases can the block be pulled along the surface?

$A$ block of $7\,kg$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface and is pulled by a variable force $F$ (in $N$) $= 5t$,where $t$ is time in seconds,at an angle of $37^{\circ}$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface is $\mu = 1$. If the force starts acting at $t = 0\,s$,find the time at which the block starts to slide. (Take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

$A$ body of mass $10 \,kg$ is kept on a rough horizontal surface with a coefficient of friction of $0.3$. If a horizontal force of $50 \,N$ is applied to the body, then the acceleration of the body is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
