You need to load a crate of mass m onto the bed of a truckon earth. One possibility is just to lift the crate straight up over a height h, equal to height of the truck's bed. Theforce exert in this case is F1 and the work done in this case is W1. The other possibility is to slide the crate up the frictionless ramp of length L.. In this case you exert force F2 and perform work W2. Which statement is true?

a. F1 > F2 and W1 > W2
b. F1 = F2 and W1 > W2
c. F1 = F2 and W1 = W2
d. F1 > F2 and W1< W2
e. F1 > F2 and W1 = W2

Answer:

The correct answer is - option E. e. F1 > F2 and W1 = W2

Explanation:

Case 1 - F1 = mg, m= mass and g = gravitational force

Work done W1 = F1h= mgh (h - height of bed of truck)

Case 2 - F2 = mgsinθ

work done W2 = mgsinθ×L (L=length of ramp ans sin θ angle of ramp)

sinθ = h/l, then W2 = mg(h/L)L

W2 = mgh

By comparing both,

F2 = mgsinθ and F1 = mg therefore,

F2>F1

now, W2 = mgh, and W1 = mgh

therefore, W2 = W1.
