Answer:
puck decelerates due to the kinetic frictional force μk mg
Explanation:
given data
total distance = 12 m
coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.28
solution
we will apply equation of motion that is
v² - u² = 2 × a × s ................1
we know acceleration will be
a =
Then we have
Force = mass × acceleration .................2
m × = -μk mg
The puck decelerates due to the kinetic frictional force μk mg
and frictional force is negative as it opposes the motion.
so we get initial velocity of the puck which is strike.
