Answer:
B) Friction
Explanation:
Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.
For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:
where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction
m is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration of gravity
The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.
In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is
where is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
The cart travelled a distance of 14.4 m
Explanation:
The work done by a force when pushing an object is given by:
where:
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement
is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement
In this problem we have:
W = 157 J is the work done on the cart
F = 10.9 N is the magnitude of the force
, assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the cart
Therefore we can solve for d to find the distance travelled by the cart:
