Jace · Answer 1

2.24 m/s

Explanation:

resolving force of 29.2 N in x component

Fx = 29.2 cos 57.7

Fx = 15.6N

as force of friction is 12.7 N hence net force which produces acceleration is

15.6-12.7=2.9 N

by Newton 's law a=f/m

a = 2.9/6.87=0.422 m/s^2

now equation of motion is

v^2 = U^2+2as

= 0^2+2 (.422) (5.93)

v^2=5.00

v=2.24 m/s
