TopicWork, energy and Power 1

1 A particle of mass 1.6 kg is projected with a speed of \(20 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) up a line of greatest slope of a smooth plane inclined at \(\alpha\) to the horizontal, where \(\tan \alpha = \frac { 3 } { 4 }\). Use an energy method to find the distance the particle moves up the plane before coming to instantaneous rest.
