The photo includes all of the information, the questions I am having trouble on are: How much work is done by friction on the block as it slides across the rough part?

Transcribed Image Text:A 3.00-kg block starts from rest at the top of an incline at height yo = 2.50 m åboVe the
floor. It slides down the frictionless incline onto the floor, and then encounters a rough
part of the floor that has a coefficient of kinetic friction u = 0.500. It slides 2.00 m across
this surface before the floor is again frictionless. It then slides up another frictionless
incline on the other side. (There are four situations here, labeled "0" through “3".)
m = 3.0 kg

1. What is the initial gravitational potential energy PE, of the block? (Use the floor as
the reference point where PE = 0.)
PE = 3K9x9.8m52x2.5m
