    4.808m

    Explanation:

    Force is given as:

    F = ma

    Since the force is a frictional force,

    Fr = F

    Fr = ma

    Frictional force, Fr, is given as:

    -umg = ma

    a = - ug = - 0.13 * 9.8 = - 1.274 m/s²

    Using one of the equations of motion, we can find the distance:

    v² = u² + 2as

    Since the box comes to a halt, v = 0m/s:

    0 = u² + 2as

    s = - u²/2a

    s = - (-3.5²) / (2 * 1.274) = 4.808m
