work done will be 2.5872 J
Given :
mass of block = 2kg
distance travelled by block = 20cm
angle of inclination = 40°
To Find :
Work done by gravity
Solution :
Gravity is defined as the force that attracts a body towards the earth or towards any other physical body having mass.
work done by gravity is mgh
If θ is the angle made when the body falls, the work done by gravity is given by,
W = m g h cosθ
W = 2 x 9.8 x 0.2 x cos40°
= 2.5872 J
So work done will be 2.5872 J
