Answer:

  • 362.88 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • a = 3 m/s²
  • t = 8 s
  • m = 1400 kg
  • μ(k) = 0.03

Finding Displacement

  • S = ut + 1/2at²
  • S = 0 + 1/2(3)(8)²
  • S = 32(3) = 96 m

Finding Net Force

  • Applied Force (F) = ma = 1400 x 3 = 4200 N
  • Friction Force (f) = μmg = 0.03 x 1400 x 10 = 420 N
  • Net Force = F - f = 4200 - 420 = 3780 N

Work Done

  • W = FS = 3780 N x 96 m
  • W = 362880 J
  • W = 362.88 kJ
