Question
A worker pushed a 30.0 kg block 6.50 m along a level floor at constant speed with a force directed 30.0° below the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and floor was 0.190, what were (a) the work done by the worker’s force and (b) the increase in thermal energy of the block-floor system?

Answer:
The work done by worker’s force is same as thermal energy 327.2 J
Explanation:
Given :
Mass of block
Kg
Displacement
m
Angle
30°
Coefficient of kinetic friction
(A)
The work done by the worker’s
Here force is given by,
Where
So work done by,
(B)
The thermal energy of the block floor system is,
Therefore, the work done by worker’s force is same as thermal energy 327.2 J
