The work done was done by friction to keep the crate from moving as the truck came to a stop is 20,000 J.

Work done by friction to prevent the crate from moving

The work done is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy.

W = K.E

W = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • m is mass of crate
  • v is speed of the crate with respect to the truck = 20 m/s

W = ¹/₂(100)(20²)

W = 20,000 J

Thus, the work done was done by friction to keep the crate from moving as the truck came to a stop is 20,000 J.
