A student slides her 72 kg desk across the level floor of her dormitory room a distance 5 m at constant speed. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the desk and the floor is 0.44, how much work did she do? Answer: X10J (Express your answer to 3 significant figures. For answers ending with a digit Jast simply drop it. For example, instead of writing 0.950, just simply write 0.95)
