    Consider the situation of the previous question from a frame moving with a speed v0 parallel to the initial velocity of the block. (a) What are the initial and final kinetic energies? (b) What is the work done by the kinetic friction?
    Ans : The relative velocity of the ball w.r.t. the moving frame is given by `` {v}_{r}=v-{v}_{0}``. (a) Initial kinetic energy of the ball = `` \frac{1}{2}m{{v}_{r}}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}m(v-{v}_{0}{)}^{2}``
    Also, final kinetic energy of the ball = `` \frac{1}{2}m(0-{v}_{0}{)}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}m{{v}_{0}}^{2}`` (b) Work done by the kinetic friction = final kinetic energy `` -`` initial kinetic energy
    = `` \frac{1}{2}m({v}_{0}{)}^{2}-\frac{1}{2}m(v-{v}_{0}{)}^{2}``
    = `` -\frac{1}{2}m{v}^{2}+mv{v}_{0}``

    What is the work done by the kinetic friction?
    Ans : Work done by the kinetic friction = final kinetic energy `` -`` initial kinetic energy
    = `` \frac{1}{2}m({v}_{0}{)}^{2}-\frac{1}{2}m(v-{v}_{0}{)}^{2}``
    = `` -\frac{1}{2}m{v}^{2}+mv{v}_{0}``
