Question

Suppose that the coefficient of kinetic friction between Zak’s feet and the floor, while wearing socks, is 0.250. Knowing this, Zak decides to get a running start and then slide across the floor. Part A If Zak’s speed is 3.00 m/s when he starts to slide, what distance d will he slide before stopping? Use 9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.

    Answer:

    The distance travel before stopping is 1.84 m

    Explanation:

    Given :

    coefficient of kinetic friction \mu_{k} = 0.250

    Zak’s speed v = 3 \frac{m}{s}

    Gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

    Work done by frictional force is given by,

      W = \Delta K

     \mu _{k} mg d = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

      d = \frac{v^{2}  }{2 g \mu _{k} }

      d = \frac{9}{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.250}

      d = 1.84 m

    Therefore, the distance travel before stopping is 1.84 m
