Consider a car moving on a straight road with a speed of $100 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. The distance at which car can be stopped is $\left[\mu_{\mathrm{k}}=0.5\right]$
  1. $800 \mathrm{~m}$
  2. $1000 \mathrm{~m}$
  3. $100 \mathrm{~m}$
  4. $400 \mathrm{~m}$

Solution

$\mu_{\mathrm{k}} \mathrm{mgs}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mu}^2$ $\mathrm{~s}=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2}{2 \mu_{\mathrm{k}} \mathrm{g}}=1000 \mathrm{~m}$
