Motion on a surface with friction
Not what you're looking for?
A clerk pushes a coke bottle with a mass of 0.45kg toward the left of a smooth, level counter. As the bottle leaves his hand, its initial velocity is 2.8m/s. Due to the horizontal frictional force exerted by the counter top, the bottle slides 1.0m before coming to rest.
What are the magnitude and direction of the frictional force?
