Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Potential Energy and Conservation of Energy: Problem 9

Figure 8.9 shows three situations involving a plane that is not frictionless and a block sliding along the plane. The block begins with the same speed in all three situations and slides until the kinetic frictional force has stopped it. Rank the situations according to the increase in thermal energy due to the sliding, greatest first.
