A block of mass m=10 kg rests on horizontal table. The coefficient of friction between the block and the table is 0.05. When hit by a bullet of mass 50 g moving with speed , that gets embedded in it, the block moves and comes to stop after moving a distance of 2 m on the table. If a freely falling object were to acquire speed after being dropped from height H, then neglecting energy losses and taking g=10 ms-2, the value of H is close to :
0.2 km
0.3 km
0.4 km
0.5 km
As we learnt in
Kinetic or Dynamic Friction -
kinetic friction
coefficient of kinetic friction
R = reaction
- wherein
depends on the nature of surface in contact.
v = 0 u2 = 2as
H = 40 m = H = 0.04 km
