Solution

The correct option is A

12.5 N


Step-1: Given data

Mass of the object, m=5kg

Initial speed of the object, u=65cm/s=0.65m/s.

Final speed of the object, v=15cm/s=0.15m/s.

Time,t=0.2s.

Step-2: Finding average resisting force

Using Newton's second law of motion:

F=ma

F=m×v-ut

F=5×0.15-0.650.2F=-12.5N

Hence average resisting force is 12.5Nand the correct option is (a).
