$A$ $20\, kg$ 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

$A$ box of mass $2 kg$ is placed on the roof of a car. The box would remain stationary until the car attains a maximum acceleration. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the roof of the car is $0.2$ and $g=10 ms^{-2}$. This maximum acceleration of the car,for the box to remain stationary,is: (in $ms^{-2}$)
