Mark pushes his broken car 140 m down the block to his friend's house. He has to exert a 110 N horizontal force to push the car at a constant speed. How much thermal energy is created in the tires and road during this short trip?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a work problem...energy is created and used in the form of work.

W = FΔx where W is work, F is the force needed to move the object Δx in meters.

W = 110(140) ∴

W = 15000 J
