A child of mass 35kg is sitting on a trolley of mass 5kg.the trolley is given a push by applyinga force so that it begins to move with a speed of 4 m/s.the trollye comes to rest after covering a distance of 16m find1) work done on the trolley2) work done by the trolley before coming to rest

Answer» TOTAL mass of system=35+5=40kg
initial velocity(U)=4m/s
distance COVERED(s)=16m
final velocity(V)=0m/s
work DONE by trolley=v²-u²=2as
16=2a×16
a=1/2
f=m×a
f=40×1/2
=20N
w=f×s=20×16
=320J
