A truck is moving at 15m/s when the brakes are applied, in order to come to a stop before hitting a pothole 20m ahead. In the back of the truck is a crate. It is not tied down, but has a coefficient of static friction us = 0.4 with the truck bed. Will the truck be able to stop in time, without the crate sliding?
