Outside the space shuttle, you and a friend pull on two ropes to dock a satellite whose mass is 600 kg. The satellite is initially at position < 4.0, -1.2, 3.0 > m and has a speed of 5 m/s. You exert a force < -400, 400, 300 > N. When the satellite reaches the position < 5.0, 2.4, 0.0 > m, its speed is 4.96 m/s. How much work did your friend do?
