Suppose that the coefficient of kinetic friction between Zak's feet and the floor, while wearing socks, is 0.250. Knowing this, Zak decides to get a running start and then slide across the floor. If Zak's speed is 3.00 m/s when he starts to slide, what distance d will he slide before stopping? Use 9.81 m/s² for the acceleration due to gravity. Express your answer in meters. 1 ΑΣΦ ? m
