Problem

A 1.5 kg1.5\,\text{kg} block is launched up a rough incline that makes an angle of 20∘20^{\circ} with the horizontal at 4.0 m s−14.0\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1}. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is 0.250.25. Using g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-2}, determine the distance the block travels along the incline before momentarily coming to rest.
