To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the work theorem for which it is defined as the product of Force and distance. In turn, we will use the energy conservation theorem for which the applied work must be equivalent to the total kinetic energy on the body.
The work is defined as

Here,
F = Force
d = Displacement
Replacing with our values we have that


Now by conservation of energy,



Solving for v,


Therefore the correct answer is D.
The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given,
Temperature, T = 0°C
Initial mass, Mi = 62kg
Speed, s = 5.48m/s
Distance, x = 26.8m
Friction is present.
Mass of ice melted = ?
We know,
The amount of energy required for the melting of ice is exactly equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block of ice
and

Therefore, 
KE = 930.94 Joules
Ice melting lateral heat is 334 kJ/kg = 334000 J/kg.
Therefore, the melted mass of the ice = 930.94 / 334000 = 0.00278 kg = 2.78 g.
Thus, The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g
It acquires a positive electric charge.
