The coefficients of friction between the flatbed of the truck and crate are s = 0.80

The coefficients of friction between the flatbed of the truck and crate are μ_s = 0.80 and μ_k = 0.70. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the truck tires and the road surface is 0.90. If the truck stops from an initial speed of 15 m/s with maximum braking (wheels skidding), determine where on the bed the crate finally comes to rest or the velocity v_rel relative to the truck with which the crate strikes the wall at the forward edge of the bed.
