A block of mass 12.2 kg is sliding at an initial velocity of 3.9 m/s in the positive x-direction. The surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.173. (indicate the direction with signs of your answer) (a) What is the force of kinetic friction in N acting on the block? (b) What is the block's acceleration in /s^2? (c) How Far will it slide (in m) before coming to rest? Plz answer as soon as possible

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Force of friction = μ R where μ is coefficient of kinetic friction and R is reaction force

R = mg where m is mass of the block

Force of friction F = μ x mg

= .173 x 12.2 x 9.8

= 20.68 N

b ) Only force of friction is acting on the body so

deceleration = force / mass = 20.68 / 12.2 = 1.7 m /s²

acceleration = - 1.7 m /s²

c )

v² = u² - 2 a s

v = 0 , u = 3.9 m /s

a = 1.7 m /s

0 = 3.9² - 2 x 1.7 x s

s = 4.47  m
