4-2.Friction
medium
A block of mass $10\, kg$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface having coefficient of friction $\,\mu = 0.5$. If a horizontal force of $100\, N$ is acting on it, then acceleration of the block will be ....... $m/s^2$
A
$0.5$
B
$5$
C
$10$
D
$15$
(AIPMT-2002)
Solution
$(b)$ $a = \frac{{{\rm{Applied\, force – Kinetic \,friction}}}}{{{\rm{mass}}}}$ $ = \frac{{100 – 0.5 \times 10 \times 10}}{{10}} = 5m/{s^2}$
