Question

A block of mass ?=5.4kgm=5.4kg slides on a rough surface and moves toward a spring with a spring constant ?=1474N/mk=1474N/m, as shown in the figure below. When the block is ?=21.4md=21.4m away from the spring, it has a velocity of ?=15.9m/sv=15.9m/s. When the block momentarily stops, it has compressed the spring by ?=29cmx=29cm. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface below? Provide your answer with two decimal places. Take ?=9.80m/s2g=9.80m/s2.
