**Scenario: Loading a Suitcase onto a Moving Truck**A student, while moving out of his old apartment, is loading a rented moving truck using a ramp that is positioned at a steep angle of 28.0° above the horizontal. The ramp spans a distance of 2.90 meters in length. During the loading process, the student drags a suitcase with a mass of 24.50 kg along the entire length of the ramp. However, the wheels on this old suitcase are no longer functioning properly. As a result, the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the suitcase and the inclined ramp amounts to 0.220.To overcome this friction, the student uses a strap attached to one corner of the suitcase to pull it. In his haste, he ascends the ramp, pulling on the strap to expedite both his and the suitcase's movement up the incline. Remarkably, the student maintains a tension of 173.0 N in the strap during the pull. The angle formed between the strap and the incline measures 19.0° (indicating that the strap's direction is 19.0° higher than the angle of the incline). **Physics Problem: Analyzing Forces and Energy on an Incline**---**Question:**How much work is done by the frictional force on the suitcase during the pull up the ramp?- [View Available Hint(s)]- Input box provided for response.- Button: [Submit]---**Part E:**As a result of the pull up the incline, what is the increase in the thermal energy present in the suitcase and in the surface of the ramp?- Input box provided for response.- Button: [Submit]- Option: [Request Answer]---**Part F:**What is the change in the kinetic energy of the suitcase as a result of the pull up the incline?- Input box provided for response.- Button: [Submit]---This exercise encourages understanding of basic physics concepts such as work, friction, thermal energy, and kinetic energy in the context of an inclined plane.

A student, while moving out of his old apartment, is loading a rented moving truck using a ramp which is at a rather steep angle of 28.0° above the horizontal; the ramp is 2.90 m long. At one point in the loading process he drags a loaded suitcase of mass 24.50 kg up the full length of the ramp. The wheels on the old suitcase have long since ceased to function properly, so that the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the suitcase and the inclined ramp is 0.220. The old suitcase has a strap attached to one corner, and the student does the dragging by pulling on this strap and running up the ramp (he is in a hurry) so that he and the suitcase speed up while going up the ramp. It turns out the the student is able to maintain a tension of 173.0 N during his pull, and the angle between the strap and the incline is 19.0° (the strap direction is 19.0" higher than the incline angle).

Newton’s Third Law of Motion

The horse pulls the cart and the cart pulls the horse in response as per Newton third law. So the big question is, “Don’t the two forces cancel each other? How does the cart accelerate?”

**Scenario: Loading a Suitcase onto a Moving Truck**

A student, while moving out of his old apartment, is loading a rented moving truck using a ramp that is positioned at a steep angle of 28.0° above the horizontal. The ramp spans a distance of 2.90 meters in length. During the loading process, the student drags a suitcase with a mass of 24.50 kg along the entire length of the ramp. However, the wheels on this old suitcase are no longer functioning properly. As a result, the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the suitcase and the inclined ramp amounts to 0.220.

To overcome this friction, the student uses a strap attached to one corner of the suitcase to pull it. In his haste, he ascends the ramp, pulling on the strap to expedite both his and the suitcase's movement up the incline. Remarkably, the student maintains a tension of 173.0 N in the strap during the pull. The angle formed between the strap and the incline measures 19.0° (indicating that the strap's direction is 19.0° higher than the angle of the incline).
