Question

An object is initially moving at 2.0 m/s.  It is displaced 1.0 m down a rough incline in dynamic equilibrium by an applied force that is parallel to the horizontal (not the incline).

 

State whether the following works are positive, negative or zero and why.

  1. work of the applied force



  1. work of the normal force



  1. work of the weight



  1. work of friction



  1. net work

 

Expert Solution
Step 1

As the block is in inclined plane and the force is acting in horizontal direction, it can be split to horizontal and vertical components respective to block.

Let the force applied is F, then the horizontal force is Fh, weight force is W, the horizontal force of weight is Wh, normal reaction force is N and the friction force is f.
