Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I can't even understand where to start! Please offer any suggestions. I can't find any equation where just the velocity would be sufficient. I have V1 and V0 but absolutely nothing else - well also μk and μs. ok wait if I have μs that should somehow help me...but how? Any help greatly appreciated! Kind regards,
Kate
