uploaded imageThe 25-lb block has an initial speed of vo = 10 ft/s when it is midway between springs A and B. After striking spring B, it rebounds and slids across the horizontal plane and strikes spring A, etc. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the plane of the block is μk = 0.4, determine the total distance traveled by the block before it comes to rest. Please draw all needed diagrams (free body, velocity, accereration, and etc).
