Problem

A 4 kg4\,\text{kg} block rests on a horizontal floor with coefficients of friction μs=0.4\mu_s=0.4 and μk=0.3\mu_k=0.3. A constant horizontal force of 25 N25\,\text{N} is applied for 3 s3\,\text{s}, after which the force is suddenly removed. How far from its starting point will the block finally come to rest? (Take g=10 m s−2g=10\,\text{m s}^{-2}) (a) 26 m26\,\text{m} (b) 38 m38\,\text{m} (c) 30 m30\,\text{m} (d) 18 m18\,\text{m}
