1 / 5

1) A constant force of 9.0 kN, parallel to an inclined plane, moves a body of weight 20 kN through a distance of 40 m along the plane at constant speed. The body gains 12 m in height, as shown.

How much of the work done is dissipated as heat?

2 / 5

2) A person exerts a horizontal force of 600 N on a box that also experiences a friction force of 200 N.

If it takes 4.0 seconds to move the box 3.0 m, what is the average useful power?
