A body of mass 2 kg moving on a horizontal surface with an initial velocity of 4 m/sec comes to rest after 2 sec. If one wants to keep this body moving on the same surface with a velocity of 4 m/sec, the force required is

a
8 N
b
4 N
c
zero N
d
2 N

detailed solution

Correct option is B

If f be the frictional force acting on the body, then 4−f2×2=0⇒f=4NForce required to keep the body moving at 4 m/s = f = 4 N.
