Evaluate the mechanical energy lost due to friction

Reference no: EM13518381

A 2.70 kg box slides down a rough incline plane from a height h of 1.87 m. The box had a speed of 2.55 m/s at the top and a speed of 2.12 m/s at the bottom. Calculate the mechanical energy lost due to friction (as heat, etc.).
