A box with mass 1.74 kg is being pulled across a rough surface at a constant speed with a coefficient of kinetic friction µk = 0.366. The pulling force has a magnitude of 11.2 N and is directed at an angle 32.8 degrees above horizontal. If the box is dragged a distance of 10.3 m, what is the total energy lost to friction? (Hint: be sure to account for the upward component of the pulling force, and note that the energy lost to friction is being compensated for by the work added by the pulling force).

A box of mass 730 kg is being pulled at a constant speed across a rough horizontal floor by a constant force, F. The angle of this force above the horizontal is such that the force you apply is a minimum (that is, the amount of force you need to move the box at a constant speed across the floor depends on the angle at which you pull - find the angle which the force is a minimum). Calculate the...

A sled is being pulled across a horizontal patch of snow. Friction is negligible. The pulling force points in the same direction as the sled's displacement, which is along the +x axis. As a result, the kinetic energy of the sled increases by 38 percent. By what percentage would the sled's kinetic energy have increased if this force had pointed 62 above the +x axis?
