Problem 71GP

Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 3.85-kg block and the horizontal surface on which it rests if an 850-N/m spring must be stretched by 6.20 cm to pull it with constant speed. Assume that the spring pulls in the horizontal direction.

ANSWER:

Solution 71GP

Step 1 of 3

Here we have to calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the given block and the horizontal surface on which it is at rest.

In the given case, a block of lies on a horizontal plane with kinetic friction . If a spring with spring constant is stretched to a length to pull the block with constant speed by assuming all the pulls are in horizontal direction.
