The coefficient of kinetic friction between a suitcase and the floor is 2.76. if the suitcase has a mass of 71.5 kg, how far can it be pushed across the level floor with 670 j of work?

Respuesta :

suitcase can be pushed to a distance of 0.35 m

Explanation:

Work done= Ff d

w= 670 J

Ff= force of friction

d= distance

force of friction is given by Ff=μ mg

μ= coefficient of friction=2.76

m=mass=71.5 kg

so Ff= (2.76) (71.5) (9.8)

Ff=1934 N

so W= Ff d

670= 1934 d

d=0.35 m
