A food shipper pushes a wood crate of cabbage heads (total mass `m=14 `kg) across a concrete floor with a constant horizontal force `vec(F)` of magnitude 40 N. In a straight-line displacement of magnitude `d=0.50`, the speed of the create decreases from `v_(0)=0.60 m//s` to `v=0.20 m//s`.
How much work is done by force ` vec(F)`, and on what system does it do the work?

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the work done by the force \( \vec{F} \) on the wood crate of cabbage heads. We will also identify the system on which this work is done. ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values - Mass of the crate, \( m = 14 \, \text{kg} \) - Magnitude of the force, \( F = 40 \, \text{N} \) - Displacement, \( d = 0.50 \, \text{m} \) - Initial speed, \( v_0 = 0.60 \, \text{m/s} \) - Final speed, \( v = 0.20 \, \text{m/s} \) ...
