Problem 53P
A 1.80-kg block slides on a rough horizontal surface. The block hits a spring with a speed of 2.00 m/s and compresses it a distance of 11.0 cm before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is µk = 0.560, what is the force constant of the spring?

Problem 53P
A 1.80-kg block slides on a rough horizontal surface. The block hits a spring with a speed of 2.00 m/s and compresses it a distance of 11.0 cm before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is µk = 0.560, what is the force constant of the spring?
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 5
Here we have to calculate the force constant of the spring.
The block of mass sliding on horizontal surface hits a spring with the speedand the spring undergoes a compression of before coming to rest. By taking coefficient of kinetic friction as , we have to calculate the force constant of spring .
