A block of mass 20 kg is pulled up a slope (fig.12) with a constant speed by applying a force of 500 N parallel to the slope. A and B are initial and final positions of the block.
(a)    Calculate the work done by the force in moving the block from A and B.
(b)    Calculate the potential energy gained by the block.

How fast should a boy weighting 30 kg run so that his kinetic energy is 375 joule?

List any six forms of energy and write a short note on each of them.

What do you understand by ‘potential energy’? Give three examples to illustrate your answer.
