A body of weight $64\, N$ is pushed with just enough force to start it moving across a horizontal floor and the same force continues to act afterwards. If the coefficients of static and dynamic friction are $0.6$ and $0.4$ respectively, the acceleration of the body will be (Acceleration due to gravity $= g$)

A particle is moving along the circle $x^2 + y^2 = a^2$ in anti clock wise direction. The $x-y$ plane is a rough horizontal stationary surface. At the point $(a\, cos\theta , a\, sin\theta )$, the unit vector in the direction of friction on the particle is:

A body of mass $10\,kg$ is moving with an initial speed of $20\,m / s$. The body stops after $5\,s$ due to friction between body and the floor. The value of the coefficient of friction is (Take acceleration due to gravity $g =10\; ms ^{-2}$)
