Question
A box of 18kg is released from rest on a rough inclined plane and slides to the bottom. The plane is inclined at a 330 angle to the horizontal and it is 2.8 m high. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plane is 0.1.
A. How much work is done by the normal force?
B. How much work is done by the gravitational force during this motion?
C. How much work is done by the frictional force during this motion?
D. What is the net work done on the box as it slides down the plane? (Be sure to include the sign.)
E. Use conservation of energy to determine the speed of the block as it reaches the bottom.

The table has been prepared so that the left half of the table (from A to B) is frictionless. The right half (from B to C) has a non-zero coefficient of friction equal to µ. The hand pushes the block the full distance from A to C using a constant force of 5 N. The block starts off at rest at point A and comes to a stop when it reaches point C. The distance from A to B is 0.5 m and the distance from B to C is also 0.5 m. We will consider the block by itself as our system so all forces on the block are external.
