Given: \(k=12 Nm^{-1}\)
\(F = –kx\)
\(F = –12x\)
\(mv \text{} \frac{dv}{dx} =−12\)
\(\int_{4}^{v}vdx=-6\int_{0.5}^{1.5}xdx\)
(m = 2 kg)
\(\frac{v^2-16}{2}\)=−6[\(\frac{1.5^2-0.5^2}{2}\)]
\(\frac{v^2 -16}{2}\)=−6
v = 2 m/sec
\(\therefore ,\) The correct option is (C): \(2.0\text{ ms}^{-1}\)
A black body is at a temperature of 2880 K. The energy of radiation emitted by this body with wavelength between 499 nm and 500 nm is U1, between 999 nm and 1000 nm is U2 and between 1499 nm and 1500 nm is U3. The Wien's constant, b = 2.88×106 nm-K. Then,

A block of mass m is placed on a surface having vertical cross section given by \(y=\frac{x^2}{4}\). If coefficient of friction is 0.5, the maximum height above the ground at which block can be placed without slipping is:
A block of mass 100 kg slides over a distance of 10 m on a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of friction between the surfaces is 0.4, then the work done against friction (in J) is:

There exists a force called friction which works against the motion between two surfaces that are in contact. Multiple types of friction have been identified, such as static friction, kinetic friction, rolling friction, and fluid friction.
Static friction is the force that opposes the initiation of motion between two surfaces in contact that are not moving relative to each other. It is generally greater than the force of kinetic friction, which is the force that opposes the motion of two surfaces that are in contact and are moving relative to each other. The force of kinetic friction is proportional to the normal force, which is the force perpendicular to the contact surface.
Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls over a surface, such as a wheel rolling on a road. The force of rolling friction is generally less than the force of kinetic friction, which makes it more efficient for transportation.
When an object moves through a fluid like water or air, it experiences fluid friction. The force of fluid friction depends on the object's speed, size, and shape, as well as the properties of the fluid, such as its viscosity.

Friction is a fundamental force that affects many aspects of our lives, including transportation, construction, and manufacturing. Understanding the types of friction and their properties is essential for designing and optimizing machines and structures that rely on frictional forces for their function.
