A block of mass 1 kg is pushed up a surface inclined to horizontal at an angle of 30∘ by a force of 10 N parallel to the inclined surface as shown in the figure.

The coefficient of friction between block and the incline is 0.1. If the block is pushed up by 10 m along the incline, then, the work done by applied force is :
(Take g=10 ms−2 )
A
10 J
B
50 J
C
100 J
D
150 J
Answer
100 J
Explanation
Solution
Work done by applied force is
W=Fd=10 N×10 m=100 J
