A block with initial velocity of 3 m/s slides 9 m across a rough horizontal surface before coming to rest. What is the coefficie

nt of kinetic
friction?

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is 0.051.

The given parameters;

  • <em>initial velocity, u = 3 m/s</em>
  • <em>distance traveled by the block, s = 9 m</em>

The acceleration of the block is calculated as follows;

v^2 = u^2 +  2(-a)s\\\\v^2 = u^2 - 2as\\\\a = \frac{u^2 - v^2}{2s} \\\\a = \frac{3^2 - 0^2}{2\times 9} \\\\a =0.5 \ m/s^2

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is calculated as follows;

\mu_k mg = ma\\\\\mu_k = \frac{a}{g} \\\\\mu_k = \frac{0.5}{9.8} \\\\\mu_k = 0.051

MrRa [10]
The kinetic energy is \frac 1 2 m v^2 and the height of the building doesn't matter at all.

E = \frac 1 2 m v^2 = \frac 1 2 (2)(5)^2 = 25 joules

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano
Brums [2.3K]

f = ma

Rearranging it, we get;

a =  \frac{f}{m}
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

a =  \frac{325}{250}
a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }
