A 2.0-kilogram block sliding down a ramp from a height of 3.0 meters above the ground
reaches the ground with a kinetic energy of 50. joules. The total work done by friction on the
block as it slides down the ramp is approximately
(1) 6 J
(2) 9 J
(3) 18 J
(4) 44 J

A75-hp (shaft output) motor that has an efficiency of 91.0 percent is worn out and is to be replaced by a high-efficiency motor that has an efficiency of 95.4 percent. the motor operates 4368 hours a year at a load factor of 0.75. taking the cost of electricity to be $0.12/kwh, determine the amount of energy and money saved as a result of installing the high-efficiency motor instead of the standard motor. also, determine the simple payback period if the pu
