position, the speed is ___________.
A. Constant
B. Zero
C. Minimum
D. Maximum

rough horizontal surface. If the crate moves at constant speed, find

a) the work done by the 150-N force


b) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and surface.
(Answer: 900J,0.383)

2. A block of mass m = 2.50 kg is pushed a distance d = 2.20 m along a frictionless horizontal table
by a constant applied force of magnitude F = 16.0 N directed at an angle Ɵ = 25.0° below the
horizontal as shown in Figure P5.8. Determine the work done by

accelerates from 1.5 m/s to 3.0 m/s in 3.0 s.
a) Determine the change in kinetic energy for the cart.
