How is the Work Done by Friction Calculated on a Box?
so it would be like this: W=KEf-KEi (KEf= kinetic final, KEi= kinetic initial) W=(1/2(20kg)(2.6m/s)^2)-(1/2(20kg)(0.5m/s)^2) W=65.1 J is there another step i have to do?- snoopyrawr

How is the Work Done by Friction Calculated on a Box?
yes there is a horizontal force of 30degrees applied on the box and how would you set up this problem if the friction coefficient is not given?- snoopyrawr

How is the Work Done by Friction Calculated on a Box?
Homework Statement i've been stuck on this problem for about 45mins. A constant external force P = 160 N is applied to a 20 kg box,which is on a rough horizontal surface. The force pushes the box a distance of 8.0 m, in a time interval of 4.0 s, and the speed changes from v1 = 0.5 m/s to v2 =...- snoopyrawr
