The thermal energy that is generated due to friction is 344J.
<h3>What is the thermal energy?</h3>
Now we know that the total mechanical energy in the system is constant. The loss in energy is given by the loss in energy.
Thus, the kinetic energy is given as;
KE = 0.5 * mv^2 =0.5 * 15.0-kg * (1.10 m/s)^2 = 9.1 J
PE = mgh = 15.0-kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.40 m = 352.8 J
The thermal energy is; 352.8 J - 9.1 J = 344J

If you write down the formula for friction, you will get an answer.
Ff = u * N Where N is a push down force that an object experiences.
u (mu) is a constant and has no units
It may not be accelerating and still experience friction. A is not correct.
Color and Density will not affect the frictional force. B is not so.
Buoyant forces are a different thing altogether. Generally friction has nothing to do with them. C is incorrect.
The last one is your answer. Technically mg should be the answer and not mass, but the second part is correct.
