A body of mass 2kg is at rest on a horizontal table. The coefficient of friction between the body and the table is `0.3` . A force of 5N is applied on the body. The acceleration of the body is.

A

`0ms^(-2)`

B

`2.5ms^(-2)`

C

`5ms^(-2)`

D

`7.5ms^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`f_(ms)=0.3xx2xx10=6N`
applied force `ltf_(ms)`
So, body would not move.
