$A$ car is moving on a straight horizontal road with a speed $v.$ If the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road is $\mu ,$ the shortest distance in which the car can be stopped is

  • A
    $\frac{v^2}{2\mu g}$
  • B
    $\frac{v^2}{\mu g}$
  • C
    $\left( \frac{v}{\mu g} \right)^2$
  • D
    $\frac{v^2}{\mu}$

$A$ block is thrown with a velocity of $2 \, m/s$ (relative to the ground) on a belt,which is moving with a velocity of $4 \, m/s$ in the opposite direction of the initial velocity of the block. If the block stops slipping on the belt after $4 \, s$ of throwing,then choose the correct statement$(s)$:

$A$ rope of length $L$ and mass $M$ is being pulled on a rough horizontal floor by a constant horizontal force $F = Mg$. The force is acting at one end of the rope in the same direction as the length of the rope. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the rope and the floor is $1/2$. Then,the tension at the midpoint of the rope is
