A Levels Physics (9702)•9702/11/M/J/25

Explanation
Insufficient geometric information to calculate straight-line distance XZ Steps:
- Friction force f = work_{XY} / d_{XY} = 150 J / 3.0 m = 50 N (constant magnitude).
- Distance YZ = work_{YZ} / f = 200 J / 50 N = 4.0 m.
- Path length for P: 3.0 m + 4.0 m = 7.0 m; total work_P = 150 J + 200 J = 350 J.
- Path length for Q: straight-line distance d_{XZ} (unknown); work_Q = f × d_{XZ} = 50 × d_{XZ}.
- Extra work = work_P - work_Q = 50 × (7 - d_{XZ}); cannot compute without d_{XZ}.
Not enough information.
Final answer: Not enough information.
