    A body is freely released from point A so that it slides down the smooth inclined plane AB and  then along the rough horizontal surface BC and comes to point C with 4 m/sec. Then the coefficient  of friction over the rough surface is         

    A)  0.2

    B)  0.4  

    C)  0.65

    D)  0.75

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                \[\sin 30=\frac{h}{8}\] or                \[h=4\,\,m\] On falling freely through a vertical height of\[4\,\,m\], velocity acquired by the body             \[=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 4}=\sqrt{80}\] Now,     \[{{v}^{2}}={{u}^{2}}-2as\] Friction retardation,\[a=\mu g\] \[\therefore \]      \[80-16=2\mu g\times 8\] or         \[\mu =0.4\]
