Homework Statement
A crate is pushed along the ground at a constant velocity for a distance of 5m. if the friction force is 5 N, how much net work is done on the crate? how much work is done by the friction force? by the external pushing force? by gravity?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I believe the net work is force 5N x displacement 5m, so 25. there's no movement along the y axis, so I'm thinking gravity's work is zero. but how can i determine how much work is done by the friction force, and how much by the external pushing force?
