Assume that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface μk is 0.43. When the metal object hits the block, it is stuck with the block and both start to slide together with velocity vf. They move together after the collision, and stop after sliding ∆x = 1.95 m. What is the initial velocity vi of the metal object before it hits the block in m/s? Keep three significant figures for the answer.arrow_forwardPlease Help!arrow_forward
