Answer:
Coefficient of friction will be 0.587
Explanation:
We have given mass of the car m = 500 kg
Distance s = 18.25 m
Initial velocity of the car u = 14.5 m/sec
As the car finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec
From second equation of motion



We know that acceleration is given by



So coefficient of friction will be 0.587
Options a to c can be the reasons for scientific models.
But to primarily answer scientific questions,that would require an empirical and experimental approach and not use of models.
Though after getting the answers, models can be built to further explain the answers.

Answer: 0.17</h2>
Explanation:
The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":
(1)
Where:
is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing 
is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.
is the Surface area of the body
is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.
However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close. So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:
(2)
Where
is the body's emissivity
(the value we want to find)
Isolating
from (2):
(3)
Solving:
(4)
Finally:
(5) This is the body's emissivity
The answer is B! Hope this helps
