  1. In the figure, a 1 k g block slides along a frictionless track from one level to a higher level after passing through an intermediate valley. At the higher level, the surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction μ k = 0.5 . This friction force stops the block in a distance d = 2 m . The height difference h = 1 m . Find initial velocity vo. a) 1.20 m / s b) 2.24 m / s c) 20.15 m / s d) 0.33 m / s e) 6.26 m / s
