Now we will consider a slighty different scenario related to example 8-17.
Find the required coefficient of kinetic friction for a landing speed of 1.64.
A crate of mass mm is initially at rest at the peak of an inclined plane which has a height of 4.43m4.43m and makes an angle of θ=24.2 with respect to the horizontal. After it has been released, it is found to be traveling at v=0.99m/s a distance d after the end of the inclined plane, as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is μp=0.1, and the coefficient of friction on the horizontal surface is μr=0.2.
