Answer

(a) v = 4.48 m/s (b) v = 3.61 m/s

Work Step by Step

(a) $W = K_2-K_1$ $F~d = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$ $v^2 = \frac{2F~d}{m}$ $v = \sqrt{\frac{2F~d}{m}}$ $v = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(36.0~N)(1.20~m)}{4.30~kg}}$ $v = 4.48~m/s$ (b) $W = K_2-K_1$ $F~d - mg~\mu_k~d= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$ $v^2 = \frac{2F~d - 2mg~\mu_k~d}{m}$ $v = \sqrt{\frac{2F~d-2mg~\mu_k~d}{m}}$ $v = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(36.0~N)(1.20~m)-(2)(4.30~kg)(9.80~m/s^2)(0.30)(1.20~m)}{4.30~kg}}$ $v = 3.61~m/s$
