The effective acceleration or deceleration due to gravity depends on the inclined angle of the track relative to ground; the steeper the slope is the greater the effective acceleration.

<u>Answers</u>
(a) 6.75 Joules.
(b) 5.27 m/s
(c) 0.75 Joules
<u>Explanation</u>
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion.
(a) its kinetic energy at A?
K.E = 1/2 mv²
= 1/2 × 0.54 × 5²
= 6.75 Joules.
(b) its speed at point B?
K.E = 1/2 mv²
7.5 = 1/2 × 0.54 × V²
V² = 7.5 ÷ 0.27
= 27.77778
V = √27.77778
= 5.27 m/s
(c) the total work done on the particle as it moves from A to B?
Work done = 7.5 - 6.75
= 0.75 Joules
Sir Isaac Newton concluded that two factors—inertia and gravity–combine to keep Earth in orbit around the sun, and the moon in orbit around Earth. Hope this helps!
