Questions  

75% of the power of a  car is used in accelerating it and the rest in overcoming the friction. What is the coefficient of friction if acceleration of the car is 2.45 ms-2

a
14
b
13
c
512
d
112

detailed solution

Correct option is D

power to accelerate the car = mav and power to overcome friction μmgv  given that mavμmgv=7525=31aμg=3 ⇒μ=a3g=2.453×9.8=112
