Problem

A 0.50 kg0.50\,\text{kg} puck moving at 3.0 m/s3.0\,\text{m/s} on horizontal ice (coefficient of kinetic friction μk=0.050\mu_k = 0.050) collides head-on with an identical puck at rest. The collision lasts 2.0×10−2 s2.0\times10^{-2}\,\text{s}. Calculate the magnitude of the impulse delivered by friction to the two-puck system during the collision interval.
