A box of mass 50kg at rest is pulled up on an inclined plane 12m long and 2m high by a constant force of 100N applied parallel to the inclined plane. When it reaches the top of the inclined plane if its velocity is 2ms–1, the work done against friction in Joules is (g = 10ms–2)

a
50
b
100
c
150
d
200

detailed solution

Correct option is B

WF = Work done by the applied force = 10 x 12 =1200JΔV = Change in P.E = mgh = 50 x 10 x 2 = 1000JΔK = Change in K.E. = 1/2 x 50 x 22 = 100JNow, WF = ΔK + ΔV + lost energy Lost energy = (1200-100-1000)J = 100J.
