The block A has a mass of 2 kg and slides into and open ended box B with a velocity of 2m/s. If the box has a mass of 3 kg and rests on top of a plate P that has a mass of 3 kg, determine the distance the plate moves after it stops sliding on the floor. Also, how long is it after impact before all motion ceases? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plate is μk = 0.1. Also, the coefficient of static friction between the plate and the floor is μs = 0.12.
