Her magnitude of deceleration on the ice would be 15.126m/s
Answer:
it wont be because the hand brake would be on
Work is calculated by multiplying force by the distance that the object had moved. The applied force is 60 N, moving the object by 10 m. Thus, the work does is 600 J. For the friction force which is equal to,
100N x 0.250 = 25.0 N
the work done is,
W = (60 N - 25 N) x 10 m = 350 J
The kinetic energy of the box can be equated to this force. Thus, the answer is also 350 J.
