The work done by the frictional force on a surface in drawing a circle of radius r on the surface by a pencil of negligible mass with a normal pressing force N (coefficient of friction μk) is?
The kinetic frictional force at any instantaneous position is
fk=μkN.
fk, acts tangentially opposite to the motion of the pencil.
For elementary displacement dl, the work done by fk is dW=→fk⋅→dl=−fkdl
=> W = −∫2πr0fkdl=−μkN∫2πr0dl
= −μN2πr=−2πrμkN
