Asled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. after the sled is released, it slidesa distance d1 down the slope and then covers the distance d2 alongthe horizontal terrain before stopping. find the coefficient ofkinetic friction μk between the sled and the ground, assumingthat it is constant throughout the trip. find the coefficient of kinetic frictionμk. express your answer in terms of someor all of the variables d1, d2, and θ.

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?
