A \( 1.5 \) \( \text{kg} \) block is pushed to the right with just enough force to get it to move. The block is pushed for five seconds with this constant force, then the force is released and the block slides to a stop. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is \( 0.300 \) and the coefficient of static friction is \( 0.400 \), calculate the amount of time that passes from when the force is applied to when the block stops.
