Answer:
972 J
Explanation:
At the bottom, all the gravitational potential energy was converted into kinetic energy. If you calculate the GPE, its value will be the same that the KE at the bottom. The GPE can be calculated this way:
GPE = mass×gravity×heigth
GPE = 2.2×9.8×45.08 ≈ 972
By using the second law of Newton, the frictional force is 200N.
We need to know about the second law of Newton (force) to solve this problem. The total force applied an object is proportional to the mass of object and acceleration. It can be defined as
∑F = m . a
where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.
From the question above, we know that
F1 = 200N
v = constant therefore (a = 0 m/s²)
By using second law of Newton, we get
∑F = m . a
F1 - Ffriction = m . 0
200 - Ffriction = 0
Ffriction = 200 N
Hence, the frictional force is 200N.
