Question:

For the adapted shuffleboard device in Prob 13.28, you decide to utilize an elastic cord instead of a compression spring to propel the puck forward. When the cord is stretched directly between points A and B, the tension is 20 N. The 425 gram puck is placed in the center and pulled back through a distance of 400 mm; a force of 100 N is required to hold it at this location. Knowing that the coefficient of friction is 0.3, determine how far the puck will travel.
