Answer:
frictional force = 462.56 N
initial velocity is 7.176 m/s
Explanation:
given data
mass = 88.8 kg
μk = 0.531
to find out
magnitude and initial speed
solution
we know that frictional force equation that is
frictional force = μk Fn
put these value we get
frictional force = 0.531 (88.8) × (9.81)
frictional force = 462.56 N
and
initial speed calculate by force equation that is
force = mass × a
a = force / mass
a = 462.56 / 88.8
a = 5.20 m/s²
so we know
V = [tex]V_{0}[/tex] + at
[tex]V_{0}[/tex] = 5.20 × 1.38
[tex]V_{0}[/tex] = 7.176 m/s
so initial velocity is 7.176 m/s
