A man of mass m speeds up while running ...

A man of mass `m` speeds up while running from rest to a speed v in a straight track along an inclined plane, after raising through a height `h`.
`W_(gravity)="work done by gravity on the man"`
`W_(friction)="work done by friction on the man"`
`W_(man)="work done by man"`
Which of the following options is correct regarding the various work done?

A

(a) `W_(gravity)=-mgh`

B

(b) `W_(f riction)gt0`

C

(c) `W_(man)=mgh+1/2mv^2`

D

(d) `W_(f riction)=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C, D

Work by friction will be zero if there is no slipping of the man's foot on incline. Work done by man will be equal to increase in his kinetic+potential energy.

A man of mass m speeds up while running from rest to a speed v in a straight track along an inclined plane, after raising through a height h . W_(gravity)="work done by gravity on the man" W_(friction)="work done by friction on the man" W_(man)="work done by man" If instead of moving up the plane, the man increases his speed to the value v while moving down the inclined plane through the same vertical distance h, then
