Problem 44P

a. Starting from rest, a crate of mass m is pushed up a frictionless slope of angle θ by a horizontal force of magnitude F. Use work and energy to find an expression for the crate’s speed v when it is at height h above the bottom of the slope.

b. Doug uses a 25 N horizontal force to push a 5.0 kg crate up a 2.0-m-high, 20° frictionless slope. What is the speed of the crate at the top of the slope?

b. Doug uses a 25 N horizontal force to push a 5.0 kg crate up a 2.0-m-high, 20° frictionless slope. What is the speed of the crate at the top of the slope?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

The free body diagram of the crate on a frictionless slope is as follows:

                             

In this condition, to find the relation of the velocity apply the work and energy principle along he slope.
