Given we are working horizontally with no angle, the function would then be D=KE/F, meaning that the slope represents the amount of force needed to stop the object with the given force at a certain distance? But I am confused as to where the "/(Fcosθ)" came from? Wait, I think I got it...

1. What is the meaning, when a graph of Stopping Distance vs. Kinetic Energy is made, of the slope of the line? Justify this answer by showing how y=mx+b corresponds to the quantities you actually plotted.D is given in CM, and KE given in \frac{g\times cm^{2}}{s^{2}} Three points (From lab...
