2 A block of mass 20 kg is held at rest at the top of a plane inclined at \(30 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. The block is projected with speed \(5 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) down a line of greatest slope of the plane. There is a resistance force acting on the block. As the block moves 2 m down the plane from its point of projection, the work done against this resistance force is 50 J . Find the speed of the block when it has moved 2 m down the plane.
