Answer:
8.75
Explanation:
First, find the force of friction.
Kinetic energy = work done by friction
½ mv² = Fd
½ (3.9 kg) (2.9 m/s)² = F (1.4 m)
F = 11.7 N
Next, find the distance at the new velocity.
Kinetic energy = work done by friction
½ mv² = Fd
½ (3.9 kg) (2.5 × 2.9 m/s)² = (11.7 N) d
d = 8.75 m
