Problem 6-7 Friction coefficient - C
A hockey puck travels 33m along an ice rink before coming to rest. Its initial speed was 11m/s.
(a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the puck?
(b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice?
Accumulated Solution
vx2=v0x2+2axx
Correct.
Before proceeding, calculate the acceleration in the x direction.
