Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be created or destroyed — only transformed.

Question

A force of P = 200 N is applied to block A and causes block A to accelerate to
the right on a rough surface as shown in Figure below. Knowing that the mass
for block A is 10 kg and the mass for block B is 6 kg. The coefficient of kinetic
friction between block A and the surface is 0.15. Pulleys are massless and
