Homework Statement



A puck of mass 30 g slides across rough ice, experiencing a frictional force of 0.20N. If it was moving at 10km/h when it hit the ice patch,
(a) how much time did it take to stop?
(b) how long was the ice patch?

Given:
m=30g (0.03kg)
Ff=0.20N
V=10km/h (2.7m/s)[/B]

Homework Equations


Fnet=ma
a=v/t
v=d/t[/B]

The Attempt at a Solution



Fnet = ma
a = Fnet/m
a = 0.20N / 0.03kg
a = 6.6m/s2[/B]

a = v/t
t = v/a
t = 2.7m/s / 6.6m/s2
t = 0.40s

v = d/t
d = vt
d = (2.7m/s)(0.40s)
d = 1.08m

So therefore, it took 0.40s for the puck to stop. The ice patch was 1.08m.

Can someone check it over PLS and thank you!

The time is correct. The distance is not correct.

The velocity is not constant, so the average velocity is not 2.7 m/s.

So would 2.7m/s be the initial velocity and then 0 would be my final velocity?

The puck comes to a stop, so yes.

so it'd be d = 2.16?

Yes.

Yes.
THANK U!
