Question
A box m=73 kg is being pulled by a constant force F=187 newtons at an angle of 29 degrees. The initial speed of the box is zero.
a) Write an expression for the work done by the force F as the block moves a horizontal distance d.
b) How much work, in joules, was done in moving the block 6.8 meters?
c) What is the speed of the box at d=6.8 meters if the surface is frictionless in meters per second?
