Q. A man of mass m speeds up while running from rest to a speed v in a straight track along an inclined plane, after rising through a height h.

W_{g r a v i t y}

= work done by gravity on the man.

W_{f r i c t i o n}

= work done by gravity on the man.

W_{m a n}

= work done by man.
If instead of moving up the plane, the man increases his speed to the value v while moving down the inclined plane through the same vertical distance h, then
