A 10 kg box is being pushed across a rough surface with a constant speed of 2 m/s. The person pushing the box slips and stops pushing. The box continues to slide across the surface before coming to rest. If the coefficient of friction between the crate and the surface is 0.1, how far does the box travel before coming to rest?
A child shoves a 4.6 kg block so that it starts traveling across a level floor with an initial velocity of 3.6 m/s.
