Two students are playing hockey with 0.4-N wad of paper. One student hits the wad and it slides across his desk, slowing down at a rate of 0.6 m/s/s. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the wad and the desk?

    Explanation:

    On a level surface, normal force = weight.

    Sum of the forces in the x direction:

    ∑F = ma

    Nμ = ma

    mgμ = ma

    gμ = a

    μ = a/g

    μ = (0.6 m/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

    μ = 0.06
