No because different Surfaces have different friction and that causes a Speed difference on each surface

If there is no friction, the roller coaster would keep moving forever but a constant velocity. The only way it would accelerate is if there was a force continually pushing on it.

A 6157 N piano is to be pushed up a(n) 2.41 m frictionless plank that makes an angle of 21.9 ◦ with the horizontal. Calculate th

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Work done, W = 5534.53 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the piano, F = 6157 N

It is pushed up a distance of 2.41 m friction less plank.

Let W is the work done in sliding the piano up the plank at a slow constant rate. It is given by :

$W=Fd\ sin\theta$

Since, $F=F\ sin\theta$ (in vertical direction)

$W=6157\times 2.41\ sin(21.9)$

W = 5534.53 J

So, the work done in sliding the piano up the plank is 5534.53 J. Hence, this is the required solution.
