Question

A 5.0 kg block is at rest on a horizontal rough surface. It is now pushed up against a spring (k = 300 N/m) and the spring is compressed a horizontal distance of 0.35 m. The spring is now released and the block is allowed to slide in a straight-line path across the rough surface until it comes to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface μk = 0.15, how far will the block slide until it comes to rest?
