A box is pulled along a floor by a force of 3.0 N. The friction acting on the box is 1.0 N, as shown. How much kinetic energy does the box gain in moving 2.0 m

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 J

Explanation:

From the image attached, we can see 2 horizontal forces acting on the box albeit in opposite directions.

Now, the net force will be;

F_net = 3 - 1

F_net = 2 N

To move a distance of 2 metres, kinetic energy is;

K.E = Force × Distance = 2 × 2 = 4 J
