A 15 kg box is initially sliding across a frictionless floor with a constant speed of 2.5 m/s. Then, the box encounters a rough surface and travels for 12 meters before coming to a stop. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and rough surface?   Note: Need drawing for solution
