Kinetic friction f_k is given by:

  1. f_k = μ_k N
  2. f_k = μ_s N
  3. f_k = μ_k m
  4. f_k = 0
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. f_k = μ_k N

Kinetic friction = μ_k × N, where μ_k is coefficient of kinetic friction and N is normal reaction. Unlike static friction, this is a definite value (when surfaces slide).

A 5 kg block is pushed with 30 N along a frictionless surface. Acceleration:

  1. 0.17 m/s²
  2. 2 m/s²
  3. 6 m/s²
  4. 150 m/s²
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 6 m/s²

We have a = F/m. That is a = 30/5. So a = 6 m/s². On frictionless surface, all applied force goes into acceleration.

A cricket ball of mass 150 g moving at (3i+4j) m/s is hit to -(3i+4j) m/s. The magnitude of momentum change is

  1. 0
  2. 3.0 kg·m/s
  3. 1.5 kg·m/s
  4. 0.75 kg·m/s
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 1.5 kg·m/s

We have Δp = m(v−u). That is Δp = 0.15·(−2)(3i+4j). So Δp = −0.3(3i+4j). |Δp| = 0.3·√(9+16) = 0.3·5 = 1.5 kg·m/s.
