$A$ body of mass $M$ is released from a height of $1.5 \ m$ on a curved track. It slides down and moves along a horizontal surface $PQ$ of length $15 \ m$. If the coefficient of friction between the body and the horizontal surface is $0.2$,at what distance from $P$ will the body come to rest (in $m$)?

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $7.5$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $5$

$A$ body of mass $m$ starts moving from rest along the $x-$axis such that its velocity varies as $v = a\sqrt{s}$,where $a$ is a constant and $s$ is the distance covered by the body. The total work done by all the forces acting on the body in the first $t$ seconds after the start of the motion is:
