A body of mass 25 kg is dragged on a horizontal rough road with a constant speed of `20 kmh^(-1)`. If the coefficient of friction is 0.5, find the heat generated in one hour. If 50% of the heat is absorbed by the body, find the rise in temperature. Specific heat of the material of the body is 0.1 cal `g^(-1).^(@)C^(-1)`.

A

`39 K`

B

`59.5 K`

C

`84.5 K`

D

`11.6 K`

The correct Answer is:
D

`0.5 xx muMg xx (V xx 60 xx 60) = MSDeltaT`
`Deltat = (0.5 xx 0.5 xx 9.8 xx 2 xx (5)/(18) xx 60 xx 60)/(0.1 xx 4.186 xx 10^(3))`
