JEE Main Physics question
A body of mass 40 kg resting on a rough horizontal surface is subjected to a force P which is just enough to start the motion of the body. If μ_s = 0.5, μ_k = 0.4, g = 10 ms⁻², and the force P continues to act on the body even after motion has started, the acceleration of the body is
Answer: (B)
Solution
P = μ_s mg = 0.5×40×10 = 200 N (held constant). Once moving, kinetic
