How far will it go, given that the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10 and the push imparts an initial speed of 3.9 m/s ?

Respuesta :

Answer:19.5 m

Explanation:

Given

coefficient of kinetic Friction [tex]\mu _k=0.10[/tex]

Initial speed [tex]u=3.9\ m/s[/tex]

Friction is present so it tries to stop to the object and stops it completely after moving certain distance let say s

maximum deceleration provided by friction is

[tex]a_{max}=\mu _k\cdot g[/tex]

[tex]a_{max}=0.1\times 3.9=0.39\ m/s^2[/tex]

using equation of motion

[tex]v^2-u^2=2 as[/tex]

where [tex]v=final\ velocity[/tex]

[tex]u=initial velocity[/tex]

[tex]a=acceleration[/tex]

[tex]s=displacement[/tex]

[tex](0)-(3.9)^2=2\times (-0.39)\times s[/tex]

[tex]s=19.5\ m[/tex]
