Question
A block of mass 3.57 kg is drawn at constant speed a distance 4.06 meters along a horizontal
floor by a rope exerting a constant force of magnitude 7.68 N making an angle 15o with the
horizontal. Compute (a) the total work done on the block, (b) the work done by the rope on the
block, (c) the work done by friction on the block, and (d) the coefficient of kinetic friction
between block and floor.
