Question: What is the work done against friction if a box is moved 5 m on a surface with a coefficient of friction of 0.2 and a normal force of 200 N?
Options:
Correct Answer: 20 J
Solution:
Frictional force = μ * N = 0.2 * 200 N = 40 N. Work done = frictional force * distance = 40 N * 5 m = 200 J.
