The 2-kg block is subjected to a force having a constant direction and a magnitude F = (300/(1+s)) N, where s is in meters. When s = 4 m, the block is moving to the left with a speed of 8 m/s. Determine its speed when s = 12 m. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ground is 0.25.
When the three blocks in Fig. $6-29$ are released from rest, they accelerate with a magnitude of 0.500 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} .$ Block 1 has mass $M,$ block 2 has $2 M,$ and block 3 has 2$M$ . What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between block 2 and the table?
