Question

Question:
A 10-kilogram block rests on a smooth surface and is subjected to a horizontal force of 6 newtons. Observer A is in a fixed frame x. The block has an initial speed of 5 meters per second and travels 10 meters, both directed to the right and measured from the fixed frame. Observer B moves at a constant velocity of 2 meters per second to the right relative to A, attached to the x-prime axis. Part one: using the principle of work and energy, determine the final speed of the block as measured by Observer A. Part two: repeat using Observer B's frame, and show that both observers obtain the same final speed for the block relative to their own frame, shifted by 2 meters per second, thereby demonstrating that the work–energy principle is valid in any inertial reference frame.
