In the figure shown, a block of weight $10 \,N$ resting on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface ${\mu _s} = 0.4$. A force of $3.5\, N$ will keep the block in uniform motion, once it has been set in motion. A horizontal force of $3 \,N$ is applied to the block, then the block will

Why coefficient friction is considered as static friction ? 

A block of mass $2\,kg$ moving on a horizontal surface with speed of $4\,ms ^{-1}$ enters a rough surface ranging from $x =0.5\,m$ to $x =1.5\,m$. The retarding force in this range of rough surface is related to distance by $F =- kx$ where $k =12\,Nm ^{-1}$. The speed of the block as it just crosses the rough surface will be ........... $\,ms ^{-1}$
