    Answer:1834.56 joules

    Explanation:

    Distance=36m

    Coefficient of friction=0.2

    Mass=26kg

    Acceleration due to gravity=9.8m/s^2

    Reaction=mass x acceleration due to gravity

    Reaction=26 x 9.8

    Reaction=254.8N

    Coefficient of friction=frictional force ➗ reaction

    0.2=frictional force ➗ 254.8

    Frictional force=0.2 x 254.8

    Frictional force=50.96N

    work=friction force x distance

    Work=50.96 x 36

    Work=1834.56

    Work=1834.56 joules
