Answer:

Change in mechanical energy = work done by friction

so it is equal to

W = -8.16 J

Explanation:

As we know that change in mechanical energy must be equal to the work done by non conservative forces only

So here when block moves down the inclined plane then the work done by friction force is given as

W = F.d

here we have

F = \mu F_n

here we know that

F_n = mg cos\theta

so we have

F_n = 2.55(9.81)(cos60)

F_n = 12.5 N

Now the friction force on the block is given as

F_f = \mu F_n

F_f = 0.25 \times 12.5

F_f = 3.13 N

now work done by the friction is given as

W = -(3.13)(2.61)

W = -8.16 J

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

F_{braking}=337299 pdl

Explanation:

Impulse-Momentum relation:

I=\Delta p\\ F_{total}*t=m(v_{f}-v{o})

F_{total}=-F_{braking}+mgsin{\theta}

We solve the equations in order to find the braking force:

F_{braking}=m(v_{o}-v{f})/t+mgsin{\theta}=17926(75.6-30.3)/6.4+17926*32.17*sin21.4=337299 pdl
