Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 11

A constant retarding force of 50 N is applied to a body of mass 10 kg moving initially with a speed of 10 m s⁻¹. The body comes to rest after

A

2 s

B

4 s

C

6 s

D

8 s

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The retarding force causes a deceleration of 5 m s⁻². Using the equation v = u + at, where v = 0, u = 10 m s⁻¹, and a = -5 m s⁻², we find t = 2 s.
