A 5.0 kg box slides down a 4.0 m long ramp that makes a 25 angle with the ground. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.65, how much thermal energy was produced?

The thermal energy was produced is 116J

What is the thermal energy produced?

Now we know that the frictional force produces the energy that is lost as heat as the body slides down the incline. The magnitude of the frictional force is obtained from;

Ff= μmgcosθ

Ff =  0.65 *  5.0 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * cos 25

Ff = 29 N

Hence, the thermal energy is;

29 N * 4.0 m = 116J
