Find coefficient of kinetic friction between pig and slide

Reference no: EM13259506

1) The floor of a railroad flatcar is loaded with loose crates having a coefficient of static friction of 0.35 with the floor. If the train is initially moving at a speed of 48 km/h, in how short a distance can the train be stopped at constant acceleration without causing the crates to slide over the floor?

2) In the figure below, a slide loving pig slides down a certain 32° slide in twice the time it would take to slide down a frictionless 32° slide. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the pig and the slide?
