A small block of mass 250 g starts at rest at A , slides to B where its speed at point B is 6.50 m / s , then slides along the horizontal surface a distance 10.0 m before coming to rest at C . (a) What is the work of friction along the curved surface?
W f = J (Don't forget to use the correct sign!)
(b) If the curved distance is 7.50 m , then estimate the average friction force on the block.
f = N
(c) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction along the horizontal surface?
μ k =
