Refer to the diagram shown below.
m = the mass of the object
x = the distance of the object from the equilibrium position at time t.
v = the velocity of the object at time t
a = the acceleration of the object at time t
A = the amplitude ( the maximum distance) of the mass from the equilibrium
position
The oscillatory motion of the object (without damping) is given by
x(t) = A sin(ωt)
where
ω = the circular frequency of the motion
T = the period of the motion so that ω = (2π)/T
The velocity and acceleration are respectively
v(t) = ωA cos(ωt)
a(t) = -ω²A sin(ωt)
In the equilibrium position,
x is zero;
v is maximum;
a is zero.
At the farthest distance (A) from the equilibrium position,
x is maximum;
v is zero;
a is zero.
In the graphs shown, it is assumed (for illustrative purposes) that
A = 1 and T = 1.

Answer:
x = 6.94 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we can find the speed at the bottom of the ramp using energy conservation
Starting point. Higher
Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g h
Final point. Lower
= K = ½ m v²
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ m v₀² + m g h = ½ m v²
v² = v₀² + 2 g h
Let's calculate
v = √(1.23² + 2 9.8 1.69)
v = 5.89 m / s
In the horizontal part we can use the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy
W = ΔK
-fr x = 0- ½ m v²
Newton's second law
N- W = 0
The equation for the friction is
fr = μ N
fr = μ m g
We replace
μ m g x = ½ m v²
x = v² / 2μ g
Let's calculate
x = 5.89² / (2 0.255 9.8)
x = 6.94 m
