Answer:
a) W = - 318.26 J, b) W = 0 , c) W = 318.275 J , d) W = 318.275 J , e) W = 0
Explanation:
The work is defined by
W = F .ds = F ds cos θ
Bold indicate vectors
We create a reference system where the x-axis is parallel to the ramp and the axis and perpendicular, in the attached we see a scheme of the forces
Let's use trigonometry to break down weight
sin θ = Wₓ / W
Wₓ = W sin 60
cos θ = Wy / W
Wy = W cos 60
X axis
How the body is going at constant speed
fr - Wₓ = 0
fr = mg sin 60
fr = 15 9.8 sin 60
fr = 127.31 N
Y Axis
N - Wy = 0
N = mg cos 60
N = 15 9.8 cos 60
N = 73.5 N
Let's calculate the different jobs
a) The work of the force of gravity is
W = mg L cos θ
Where the angles are between the weight and the displacement is
θ = 60 + 90 = 150
W = 15 9.8 2.50 cos 150
W = - 318.26 J
b) The work of the normal force
From Newton's equations
N = Wy = W cos 60
N = mg cos 60
W = N L cos 90
W = 0
c) The work of the friction force
W = fr L cos 0
W = 127.31 2.50
W = 318.275 J
d) as the body is going at constant speed the force of the tape is equal to the force of friction
W = F L cos 0
W = 127.31 2.50
W = 318.275 J
e) the net force
F ’= fr - Wx = 0
W = F ’L cos 0
W = 0
