Answer:
71.8 N
Explanation:
T = Tension force in the strap
W = net work done = 752 J
f = force of friction = 8 N
d = displacement = 15 m
θ = angle between tension force and horizontal displacement = 36 deg
work done by frictional force is given as
W' = - f d
Work done by the tension force is given as
W'' = T d Cos36
Net work done is given as
W = W' + W''
W = T d Cos36 - f d
752 = T (15) Cos36 - (8) (15)
T = 71.8 N
