Question

a block of mass m is projected up an inclined plane of inclination theta with an initial velocity u.if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and plane is mu,the distance up to which the block will rise up the plane before coming to rest?

Solution

When object is taken up through an inclined plane then net force acting on an object is:F = mgsinθ +frwhere fr is the frictional forceF = mg sinθ + μ mgcosθma = mg sinθ + μ mgcosθa = gsinθ + μgcosθso this is the acceleration of the body.Initial speed is u, final speed is zero.v = 0distance tarvelled is :v2-u2 = 2as-u2 = 2(gsinθ + μgcosθ)ss = -u22gsinθ + μgcosθNegative sign states that acceleration is in the direction opposite to the displacement of the body.
