Answer:
Time, t = 0.87 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial velocity of the object, u = 4.3 m/s
The coefficient of kinetic friction between horizontal tabletop and the object is 0.5
We need to find the time taken by the object for the object to come to rest i.e. final velocity will be 0.
Using first equation of motion to find it as :
[tex]v=u+at[/tex]
a is the acceleration, here, [tex]a=\mu g[/tex]
[tex]0=u+\mu gt[/tex]
[tex]t=\dfrac{u}{\mu g}\\\\t=\dfrac{4.3}{0.5\times 9.8}\\\\t=0.87\ s[/tex]
So, the time taken by the object to come at rest is 0.87 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.
