ESTION 1
The diagram below shows a track, ABC. The curved section, AB, is frictionless. The
rough horizontal section, BC, is 8 m long.

8 m
B.
An object of mass 10 kg is released from point A which is 4 m above the ground. It
slides down the track and comes to rest at point C.
1.1.1
State the principle of conservation of mechanical energy in words.
1.1.2
Is mechanical energy conserved as the object slides from A to C? Write only
YES or NO.
1.1.3
Using ENERGY PRINCIPLES only, calculate the magnitude of the frictional
force exerted on the object as it moves along BC.
2.
A motor pulls a crate of mass 300 kg with a constant force by means of a light
inextensible rope running over a light frictionless pulley as shown below. The
coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the surface of the inclined plane is
0,19.
