A box is sliding with a constant speed of 4.00 m>s inthe +x-direction on a horizontal, frictionless surface. At x = 0 thebox encounters a rough patch of the surface, and then the surface becomeseven rougher. Between x = 0 and x = 2.00 m, the coefficientof kinetic friction between the box and the surface is 0.200; betweenx = 2.00 m and x = 4.00 m, it is 0.400. What is the x-coordinate of the point where the box comes to rest?
In a pickup game of dorm shuffleboard, students crazed by final exams use a broom to propel a calculus book along the dorm hallway. If the 3.5 kg book is pushed from rest through a distance of 0.92 m by the horizontal 26 N force from the broom and then has a speed of 1.28 m/s, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the book and floor?
A horizontal force of 12 newtons is applied to a 4.0 kg box that slides on a horizontal surface. The box starts from rest, moves a horizontal distance of 10 meters, and obtains a velocity of 5.0 m/s. The surface has friction. The friction force, assumed constant is what?
