to move a resting box of 100 Newton on the ground with kinetic friction coeficient of 0,250 is applied a force of 60 N horizontally and displacing it 10 m. How much work does applied force do? How much work is done against friction force? What is kinetic energy of the box?

Work is calculated by multiplying force by the distance that the object had moved. The applied force is 60 N, moving the object by 10 m. Thus, the work does is 600 J. For the friction force which is equal to,
                          100N x 0.250 = 25.0 N
the work done is,
                        W = (60 N - 25 N) x 10 m = 350 J
The kinetic energy of the box can be equated to this force. Thus, the answer is also 350 J.
