Given information

Mass of crate  

Distance  

Coefficient of friction  

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

We know that,

The movers do pushing a crate across a rough floor.

Then the force would be,

   

Where,

= Coefficient of friction

= normal force

We know that,

The normal force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Where m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

So, the work done will be

The work done is equal to the product of the coefficient of friction, normal force, and distance.

 

   

Where,

s= distance
