    suitcase can be pushed to a distance of 0.35 m

    Explanation:

    Work done = Ff d

    w = 670 J

    Ff = force of friction

    d = distance

    force of friction is given by Ff=μ mg

    μ = coefficient of friction=2.76

    m=mass=71.5 kg

    so Ff = (2.76) (71.5) (9.8)

    Ff=1934 N

    so W = Ff d

    670 = 1934 d

    d=0.35 m
