A 5.0 kg block is released from rest at the top of a smooth 30° incline that is 4.0 m long. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is unknown. At the bottom of the incline the block compresses a horizontal spring of force constant \(k = 800\) N m\(^{-1}\) and comes to rest after compressing the spring by 0.10 m. (a) Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction \(\mu_k\) for the block‑incline contact. (b) Calculate the work done by the friction force during the motion (state its sign). Use \(g = 9.8\) m s\(^{-2}\).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. μ_k = 0.55, work by friction = -94 J
B. μ_k = 0.55, work by friction = -110 J
C. μ_k = 0.45, work by friction = -78 J
D. μ_k = 0.60, work by friction = -102 J
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
μ_k = 0.55, work by friction = -94 J
