A hockey puck with a mass of 0.2 kg is sliding along ice that can be considered frictionless with a velocity of 10 m/s. The puck then crosses over onto a rough floor that has a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to 0.2, how far will the puck travel before friction stops it? The correct answer is 25 m.
