A 8.00-kg block is sent up a ramp inclined at an angle ?=28.0∘ from the horizontal. It is given an initial velocity ?0=15.0 m/s up the ramp. Between the block and the ramp, the coefficient of kinetic friction is ?k=0.50 and the coefficient of static friction is ?s=0.70. What distance ? along the ramp's surface does the block travel before it comes to a stop?
