Work done = Change in K.E. + Change in PE

A rough slope is inclined at tan-1( ¾ ) to the horizontal. A box of mass 25 kg slides from rest a distance of 20 m down a line of greatest slope, at which point it has developed a speed of 14 m/s. Find the work done against friction and the coefficient of friction.

Gain in K.E. = 0.5 25 142 = 2450Loss in P.E. = 25 9.8 20 3/5 = 2940

Loss in energy = 490 = WD against friction

Work-Energy Principle

Loss in energy = 490J = WD against friction

WD = Fd Friction = 490 20 = 24.5 N

Work-Energy Principle

A bullet of mass 20 grams is fired horizontal into a vertical target of 15 cm thickness with a speed 250 m/s. If the target offers a resistance of 3600N, with what speed will the bullet emerge on the far side?

K.E. = 0.5 0.020 2502 = 625 J

WD against resistance = 3600 0.15 = 540 J

Energy level on far side = 8521
