So the force of the bullet is only applied for 1 mili second, afterwhich friction is the only force opposing the recoil motion.
Solving with your advice:
uk = 6.37 x 10^-5
Seems almost immeasurable. Thank you for helping. I did not think to separate the problem into multiple steps.

Hmmm, in my free body diagram, I assumed, the bullet was moving to the right (while looking down at the piece of paper). Therefore force on bond would be opposite, and to the left. I had setup my coordinate system so x was positive to the right, and y positive upward. Why are the directions...
Chestermiller: not quite. My class is focusing on kinematics and how forces cause acceleration, currently.Work is a later chapter.
Haruspex:
From Newtons third law, I know that the force the bullet generates on bond is equal and opposite the force the bond applies to the bullet.
From...
Homework Statement
James bond is standing on a large frozen lake and fires his handgun horizontally. This exerts 1400N of force on the bullet over a distance of 10cm before leaving the barrel at 200m/s. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between bond and the ice if he slid for 24.2 s...
Hi,
I am a new physics student. This semester and throughout the subsequent year I am enrolled and scheduled to enroll in multiple courses for under grad credit.
So far, I have enjoyed the concepts and calculations, but my course work is becoming more complex. I thought this community might...
