An object, previously at rest, slides #5 m# down a ramp, with an incline of #pi/3 #, and then slides horizontally on the floor for another #2 m#. If the ramp and floor are made of the same material, what is the material's kinetic friction coefficient?
(I really want someone to double check my work since this is one of my first physics answers)
Let's use the ramp's top for the starting condition and its bottom for the ending condition.
We are aware of:
Thus, our formula is as follows:
Adding this to the initial equation results in:

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
