Suppose you are pushing a 3 kg box with a force of 25 N (directed parallel to the ground) over a distance of 15 m. Afterward, th

alex41 [277]

Answer: 321 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the box $m=3\ kg$

Force applied is $F=25\ N$

Displacement of the box is $s=15\ m$

Velocity acquired by the box is $v=6\ m/s$

acceleration associated with it is $a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{25}{3}\ m/s^2$

Work done by force is $W=F\cdot s$

$W=25\times 15\\W=375\ J$

change in kinetic energy is $\Delta K$

$\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-0)\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 6^2\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 36\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=54\ J$

According to work-energy theorem, work done by all the forces is equal to the change in the kinetic energy

$\Rightarrow W+W_f=\Delta K\quad [W_f=\text{Work done by friction}]\\\\\Rightarrow 375+W_f=54\\\Rightarrow W_f=-321\ J$

Therefore, the magnitude of work done by friction is $321\ J$
