 ACTIVITY 4
1. How much work is done by the brakes of a car due to friction if the car is moving along a highway
at 80 𝑘𝑚/ℎ and when the brakes are applied, a frictional force was generated amounting to
4500 𝑁 at a distance of 50 𝑚? Does the energy of the car increase or decrease as a result of the
braking action?
2. What frictional force is needed to decrease the energy of a rolling rock by 240 𝐽 over a distance
of 12 𝑚?
