Question: A block rests on a horizontal frictionless surface. A string is attached to the block, and is pulled with a force of 45.0 N at

A block rests on a horizontal frictionless surface. A string is attached to the block, and is pulled with a force of 45.0 N at an angle θ above the horizontal, as shown in FIGURE 7-30. After the block is pulled through a distance of 1.50 m, its speed is 2.60 m/s, and 50.0 J of work has been done on it.
(a) What is the angle u?
(b) What is the mass of the block?

F = 45.0 N v = 2.60 m/s 1.50 m

F = 45.0 N v = 2.60 m/s 1.50 m
