Curling is a game similar to lawn bowling except it is played on ice and instead of rolling balls on the lawn, stones are slid along ice. A curler slides a stone across a sheet of ice with an initial speed v; in the positive x direction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the stone and the curling lane is uk. Express your answers in terms of Vi, uk, and g only. (Assume the direction of the stone's motion to be the positive direction. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) (a) What is the acceleration of the stone as it slides down the lane? (b) What distance does the curling stone travel? Dy Your answer cannot be understood or graded. More Information 2u g
