Where exactly would I solve for the distance? Isn't the distance in (Fdcostheta) just equal to 0.12?

Ohh okay, I got 0.77 when taking out friction but now how would I solve for the distance in part b? Is this where I plug in friction?

Woops, I messed up solving for v but I end up with 0.7 after I solved correctly? Where else could I have messed up that accounts for the .07 difference?

Homework Statement A 3.0 kg block is held against a spring with a force constant of 125 N/m. The spring is compressed by 12 cm. The ice is released across a horizontal plank with a coefficient of friction of 0.1 A) Calculate the velocity of the block just as it leaves the spring. Assume the...

Oh, I meant Fgx is the x component of the force of gravity so (mgsin30) and Ff is = Fn which is equal to the y component of Fg so Ff = (0.2 x mgcos30)

Great! And for the normal force on M1 (to figure out friction), would it be M1g - 200sintheta ?
