Question
A block of mass 0.31 kg is released from rest at point A and slides down a curved slope to point B. The vertical height of A is h = 2.06 m above point B and the block arrives at point B with a speed vB = 4.85 m/s. How much work was done by friction as the block slid from point A to point B? Express your answer in joules.

- Bob is pulling a box of his toys of mass 15.0 kg along a rough horizontal surface for a distance of 6.00 m. The tension force in the rope is 58.0 N and the angle is 30° with respect to the horizontal. The frictional force on the box is 12.0 N. How much work is done on the box by the normal force, in Joule? Use g = 10.0 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.
