TopicWork, energy and Power 2

4 A block of mass 25 kg is dragged 30 m up a slope inclined at \(5 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal by a rope inclined at \(20 ^ { \circ }\) to the slope. The tension in the rope is 100 N and the resistance to the motion of the block is 70 N . The block is initially at rest. Calculate
  1. the work done by the tension in the rope,
  2. the change in the potential energy of the block,
  3. the speed of the block after it has moved 30 m up the slope.
