A small block of mass 200 g is kept at the top of a frictionless incline which is 10 m long and 3⋅2 m high. How much work was required (a) to lift the block from the ground and put it an the top, (b) to slide the block up the incline? What will be the speed of the block when it reaches the ground if (c) it falls off the incline and drops vertically to the ground (d) it slides down the incline? Take g = 10 m/s2.

उत्तर
\[\text{ Given }, \]
\[\text{ Mass of the block, m = 200 g = 0 . 2 kg} \]
\[\text{ Length of the incline, s = 10 m }, \]
\[\text{ Height of the incline, h = 3 . 2 m } \]
\[\text{ Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/ s}^2\]
(a) Work done, W = mgh = 0.2 × 10 × 3.2 =6 .4 J
(b) Work done to slide the block up the incline
\[\text{ W }= \left( \text{ mg } \sin \theta \right) \times \text{ s } \]
\[ = \left( 0 . 2 \right) \times 10 \times \left( 3 . 2/10 \right) \times 10\]
\[ = 6 . 4 \text{ J } \]
(c) Let final velocity be v when the block falls to the ground vertically.
Change in the kinetic energy = Work done
\[\frac{1}{2}\text{mv}^2 - 0 = 6 . 4 \text{ J }\]
\[\Rightarrow \nu = 8 \text{ m/s }\]
(d) Let \[\nu\] be the final velocity of the block when it reaches the ground by sliding.

The US athlete Florence Griffith-Joyner won the 100 m sprint gold medal at Seoul Olympics in 1988, setting a new Olympic record of 10⋅54 s. Assume that she achieved her maximum speed in a very short time and then ran the race with that speed till she crossed the line. Take her mass to be 50 kg. Assuming that the track, wind etc. offered an average resistance of one-tenth of her weight, calculate the work done by the resistance during the run.
