A body of massm=1 kgis moving in a medium and experiences a frictional forceF=-kv, wherevis the speed of the body. The initial speed isv0=10 m s-1and after10s, its energy becomes half of the initial energy. Then, the value ofkis

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

∵ According to the question,

12mvf2=12×12mvi2

vi, vf=initial and final speeds of the body

orvf2=vi22orvf=102

Given,F=-kv

orma= -kv⇒mdvdt=-kv

⇒∫101021vdv= -∫010kdt   ∵  m=1kg

⇒   ln v10102=-k10

⇒   ln  102- ln 10=-k10

⇒  k=110 ln10102=110 ln2=ln⁡220
