Answer correctly the question: An m=3.84kg block situated on a rough incline is connected to a spring of negligible mass having a spring constant of k=100. N/m. The pulley is frictionless and massless. The block starts at rest at the position where the spring is unstretched. The block moves 15.1 cm down the incline before coming to rest. Take θ=38.8 as the angle. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and incline.

Expert Solution
Introduction:

We are given a block along an incline. When the block comes to rest, we apply the equilibrium conditions for both spring and the block. 

The spring force is given as

F=kx

Where k,x are spring constant and extension in spring respectively.

We first find tension. We then apply equilibrium condition to find the friction coefficient.
