A car starts from rest to cover a distance $x$. The co-efficient of friction between the road and tyres is $\mu$. The minimum time in which the car can cover distance $x$ is proportional to (A) $\mu$ (B) $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu}}$ (C) $\sqrt{\mu}$ (D) $\frac{1}{\mu}$
A car starts from rest to cover a distance $s .$ The coefficient of friction between the road and the tyres is $\mu$. The minimum time in which the car can cover the distance is proportional to (a) $\mu$ (b) $\sqrt{\mu}$ (c) $\frac{1}{\mu}$ (d) $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu}}$
Starting from rest, a car takes at least 't' seconds to travel through a distance 's' on a flat concrete road. Find the minimum time that will be needed for it to climb through a distance 's' on an inclined concrete road. Assume that the car starts from rest and the inclination of the road is θ = 5° with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the tires and the concrete road is μ = 1.
