Determine the rise in thermal energy of the floor


A horizontal force of magnitude 37.7 N pushes a block having mass 3.67 kg across a floor where the coefficient of kinetic friction is around 0.562.

(i) Determine how much work is done by that applied force on the block-floor system if the block slides via a displacement of around 3.24 m across the floor?

(ii) Throughout that displacement, the thermal energy of the block rises by 32.8 J. Determine the rise in thermal energy of the floor?

(iii) Determine the raise in the kinetic energy of the block?
