A box of
2 kg
is sliding along a floor with speed
. It then runs into and compresses a spring until
the box momentarily stops. Its path to the initially relaxed spring is
frictionless, but as it compresses the spring, a kinetic frictional force
from the floor acts on the box. The kinetic frictional coefficient is
. The maximum of the static frictional coefficient is
.
The spring constant is
k = 160 N/m
. Ignore the size of the box.
calculate the speed of the box when it re-enters the frictionless floor
