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 3.5 kg book is pushed from rest through a distance of 0.83 m by the horizontal 31 N force from the broom and then has a speed of
1.0 m/s, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the book and floor?

a)
Calculate the maximum value p of the kinetic friction coefficient between the package and the ramp AB
for which the parcel reaches point B.
b)
If the actual kinetic friction coefficient between the package and AB and BC is uk = 0.54, calculate the
distance s on the level surface BC at which the package comes to rest.
Note: if you haven't been able to solve part a), take the actual kinetic friction coefficient equal to us = 0.15.
