Megatron's primary weapon is a mounted canon that uses fusion to generate its output energy. a) If Megatron shoots Starscream (mass of 10,000 kg), and Starscream is knocked back and slides 25.5 m from the blast. He was initially sliding back at 10 m/s. How much work is done by friction? b) What is the coefficient of friction? c) If Megatron's fusion source requires 5 sec to recharge, what is the power output of the fusion source?

Question 1 

The first question does not require the coefficient of friction. Doesn't all the work being performed by the system = friction? Friction is the only thing that is performing work?
