Design and carry out an experiment to determine the coefficient of sliding friction for a block on a flat plate.



For this problem you will need measurements of the position vs. time of a block sliding on a table, starting with some initial


velocity, slowing down, and coming to rest. If you do not have an appropriate laboratory setup for making these


measurements, your instructor will provide you with such data. Analyze these data to see how well they support the assertion


that the force of sliding friction is essentially independent of the speed of sliding. (Recall that a reason was given for this


assertion—the friction force is determined by the strength of temporary interatomic bonds that must be broken.)
