Explain why a body moving in a circle at constant speed is said to be accelerating.
Laws of Motion
Original Khojo Papers practice question — not from a past board paper.
Force 2,000 N and coefficient 0.2
No citable source has been recorded for this record. Treat it as practice material, not as fact.
F = mv2/r = 1,000 × 100 ÷ 50 = 2,000 N. Friction must supply it, so μmg ≥ 2,000, giving μ ≥ 0.2.

Explain why a body moving in a circle at constant speed is said to be accelerating.
Laws of Motion
A body of mass 10 kg is pulled along a rough horizontal surface by a force of 40 N. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.2, find the acceleration. Take g = 10 m s−2.
Laws of Motion
A body of mass 2 kg moving at 5 m s−1 is brought to rest in 0.5 s. Find the retarding force and the impulse.
Laws of Motion
A block of mass 5 kg rests on a horizontal surface whose coefficient of static friction is 0.4. Find the least horizontal force needed to move it. Take g = 10 m s−2.
