The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the work done when a body of mass \(5 \, \text{kg}\) is moved up a smooth inclined plane of inclination \(30^\circ\) over a distance of \(10 \, \text{m}\). The acceleration due to gravity \(g\) is given as \(10 \, \text{m/s}^2\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Forces Acting on the Body:** The weight of the body acts downwards and can be calculated using the formula: \[ W = mg \] where \(m = 5 \, \text{kg}\) and \(g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2\). 2. **Calculate the Weight of the Body:** \[ W = 5 \, \text{kg} \times 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 50 \, \text{N} \] 3. **Determine the Component of Weight Acting Along the Incline:** The component of the weight acting down the incline can be found using: \[ F_{\text{parallel}} = W \sin(\theta) \] where \(\theta = 30^\circ\). 4. **Calculate \(F_{\text{parallel}}\):** \[ F_{\text{parallel}} = 50 \, \text{N} \times \sin(30^\circ) = 50 \, \text{N} \times \frac{1}{2} = 25 \, \text{N} \] 5. **Calculate the Work Done Against This Force:** Work done \(W_d\) is given by the formula: \[ W_d = F_{\text{parallel}} \times d \] where \(d = 10 \, \text{m}\). 6. **Substitute the Values:** \[ W_d = 25 \, \text{N} \times 10 \, \text{m} = 250 \, \text{J} \] ### Final Answer: The work done in moving the body up the incline is \(250 \, \text{J}\). ---
