In a pickup game of dorm shuffleboard, students crazed by final exams use a broom to propel a calculus book along the dorm
hallway. If the 2.2 kg book is pushed from rest through a distance of 0.68 m by the horizontal 22 N force from the broom and then
has a speed of 1.8 m/s, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the book and floor?

- In many textbook problems, we ignore certain complications such as friction and drag. The problems contain key words that indicate such a simplification is being used. For example, if a surface is described as slippery, it means that we can ignore friction. Look at the previous chapters problem sets. Find five uses of these key words and explain how to interpret each case.arrow_forwardA sled and rider have a total mass of 56.8 kg. They are on a snowy hill accelerating at 0.7g.
