A block of mass m = 3.30 kg slides along a horizontal table with velocity v0 = 4.50 m/s. At x = 0, it hits a spring with spring constant k = 28.00 N/m and it also begins to experience a friction force. The coefficient of friction is given by μ = 0.350. How far has the spring compressed by the time the block first momentarily comes to rest? Assume the positive direction is to the right. Δx = m

A block of mass m = 3.30 k g slides along a horizontal table with velocity v 0 = 4.50 m / s . At x = 0 , it hits a spring with spring constant k = 28.00 N / m and it also begins to experience a friction force. The coefficient of friction is given by μ = 0.350 . How far has the spring compressed by the time the block first momentarily comes to rest? Assume the positive direction is to the right.
Δ x =
