Question 3

An automated delivery capsule of mass m m\,m is released from rest and slides down a curved, rough chute from a release hatch X X\,X to a collection bin YYY. The vertical distance between X X\,X and Y Y\,Y is h h\,h and the speed of the capsule as it reaches Y Y\,Y is vvv.

State how the total mechanical energy transferred to the surroundings as thermal energy and sound could be calculated in terms of mmm, ggg, hhh, and vvv.
