o yeah there is some friction  [:-\]
Fx=95cos45
Fx=67.1751N

35N of friction:

67.1751N-35N= 32.1751

F=ma
32.1751N=(76Kg)a
a= 0.423357m/s^2

Calculate the heat energy that is produced by the 3.40 Ω resistor in one minute when the diode is connected in the circuit.

Since the diode is not being polarized and it will never be. the circuit becomes to be a series circuit with a total resistance of:
5.2Ω+3.4Ω = 7.9Ω

the current going trough the circuit is I=12V/7.9Ω → I = 1.51899A
the power in the resistor can be calculated by P=(I^2)*R → 1.51899A*3.4Ω = 5.16456W

then the total power dissipated in 1 minute is equal to:
Energy(watt hours)= Power (Watts)x Time (Hours)
W=(5.16456W)x(1/60)
W=86.076mWh
I think [:P] [:)]

i dont know i guess that i have a split brain.. lol
--------------------------------
it may be the flow affected by the used of too much Facebook...

anyhow, is this answer close to the one that u had?
