A hockey puck on a frozen pond is given an initial speed of 20.0 m/s. If the puck always

remains on the ice and slides 115 m before coming to rest, determine the coefficient of
kinetic friction between the puck and ice. (Answer: = 0.177 k
μ )

Work done against friction = Initial kinetic energy

M*g*ì*X = (M/2) Vo^2

ì = Vo^2/(2 g X)
