Friction Coefficients
Congratulations, Emma, Evan, and Jeffrey! The accepted value of the wood-cork static friction coefficient is 0.5, and you got 0.498598, or 0.500. Good job! (Graph in Desmos by Jeffrey)
The Friction Coefficient
Yes, physics is about quantifying, or using math as the language to describe how things work. We can observe something as simple as a block on a wooden board and graphs as beautiful as the ones below:

Static and Kinetic Friction Coefficients
The accepted value of the wood-wood static friction is between 0.25 and 0.5, and you got 0.26.
Way to go, Anh, Mariama, and Alexa (graphed in Excel).
