A 3.0-kg block is on a horizontal surface. The block is at rest when, at t = 0, a force (magnitude P = 12 N) acting parallel to the surface is applied to the block causing it to accelerate. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.20 . At what rate is the force P doing work on the block at t = 2.0 s?
a. 54 W
b. 49 W
c. 44 W
d. 59 W
e. 24 W
