Question

Derive an expression for work done in sliding body down a rough inclined plane.

Solution
Verified by Toppr

friction force, f=μR=μmgcosθ

μ is the coefficient of the friction.

Net force in forward direction, F=mgsinθμmgcosθ

Let the distance travelled by the body is ,S.

work done, W=F.S

W=(mgsinθμmgcosθ).S
