Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 9.3 m/s

sliding distance, S = 42 m

From equation of motion we determine the acceleration;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = (9.3)² + (2x42)a

- 84a = 86.49

a = -86.49/84

|a| = 1.0296

F_k = \mu_k N = ma

where;

Fk is the frictional force

μk is the coefficient of kinetic friction

N is the normal reaction = mg

μkmg = ma

μkg = a

μk = a/g

where;

g is the gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s²

μk = a/g

μk = 1.0296/9.8

μk = 0.11

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is 0.11

I think you need more information like the force of gravity and the force of the three people. Once you combine the two, however, you should get the net force.

A toy car goes over a small ramp at a horizontal velocity of 1.21 m/s and decelerates at 0.131 m/s2 while in the air. The total
xz_007 [3.2K]
We need to considerate only the horizontal component of the motion of the toy car.

The formula for the distance in a decelerated motion is:
s = s₀ + v₀·t - 1/2·a·t²

where:
s₀ = initial position = 0
v₀ = initial velocity = 1.21 m/s
t = time elapsed = 0.342 s
a = deceleration = 0.131 m/s²

Plugging in numbers:
s = 0 + 1.21×0.342 - 0.5×0.141×(0.342)²
  = 0.406 m

Hence, the toy car traveled a distance of about 41 cm.
