Question
A can of bolts and nuts is
pushed 2.00 m along an x axis by a
broom along the greasy (frictionless)
floor of a car repair shop in a
version of shuffleboard.
gives the work W done on the can
by the constant horizontal force
from the broom, versus the can’s position
x.The scale of the figure’s vertical
axis is set by Ws = 6.0 J. (a)
What is the magnitude of that
force? (b) If the can had an initial kinetic energy of 3.00 J, moving
in the positive direction of the x axis, what is its kinetic energy at
the end of the 2.00 m?
