A block slides on a rough horizontal surface from point A to point B. A force (magnitude P = 1) -3.3 J
2.0 N) acts on the block between A and B, as shown. Points A and B are 1.5 m apart. If the
kinetic energies of the block at A and B are 5.0 J and 4.0 J, respectively, how much work is Wf = (Kef-Kei)-P*costheta*d =
done on the block by the force of friction as the block moves from A to B? (4-5) - 2cos40(1.5) = -3.3 J
