Question
An external force ?⃗ moves a 2.50-kg box at a constant speed ? up a frictionless ramp, as shown in the figure. The force acts in a direction parallel to the ramp.
Calculate the work ? done on the box by this force as it is pushed up the 5.00-m ramp to a height ℎ=3.00 m.
How does the work done on the box compare to the change in gravitational potential energy Δ?grav that the box undergoes as it rises to its final height?
