Question
A 5.40-kg block is set into motion up an inclined plane with an initial speed of \( v_i = 8.40 \, \text{m/s} \) (see figure below). The block comes to rest after traveling \( d = 3.00 \, \text{m} \) along the plane, which is inclined at an angle of \( \theta = 30.0^\circ \) to the horizontal.

Figure: The diagram shows a block on an inclined plane. The plane is at an angle \( \theta \) with respect to the horizontal ground. A red arrow indicates the initial velocity \( v_i \) of the block directed up the plane. The distance \( d \) along the incline is marked as the distance the block travels before coming to rest.

(a) For this motion, determine the change in the block's kinetic energy.
\[
\boxed{ \, }
\quad \text{J}
\]

(b) For this motion, determine the change in potential energy of the block–Earth system.
\[
\boxed{ \, }
\quad \text{J}
\]

(c) Determine the friction force exerted on the block (assumed to be constant).
\[
\boxed{ \, }
\quad \text{N}
\]

(d) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
\[
\boxed{ \, }
