Problem

A body of mass m=10−2m = 10^{-2} kg is moving in a medium and experiences a frictional force F=−kv2F = -kv^2 . Its initial speed is v0=10v_0 = 10 ms −1^{-1} . If, after 10 s, its energy is 18mv02\frac{1}{8}mv_0^2 , the value of kk will be: (a) 10−410^{-4} kg m −1^{-1} (b) 10−110^{-1} kg m −1^{-1} s −1^{-1} (c) 10−310^{-3} kg m −1^{-1} (d) 10−310^{-3} kg s −1^{-1}
