Question

J) Luis throws four stones having the same weight on four different surfaces. The surfaces are icy, dry, sandy and cemented. He throws each stone with same force. On which of the given surfaces will the stone go to maximum distance before it stops?​

Answer 1

Answer: Icy surface

Explanation:The icy surface has the lowest friction which allows the stone to travel further.

Answer 2

Answer:

Correct Answer is option A, icy surface.

Explanation:

Among the four different surfaces, the icy surface will offer the least friction compared to sandy and cemented surfaces.

The stone will go to a maximum distance on the surface that has the least friction effect among st the other surfaces.

Hence, before stopping, the stone will go to the maximum distance overcoming frictional force in the icy surface.

Hence, the correct Answer is an icy surface.
