The question is incomplete! The complete question along with answer and explanation is provided below.

Question:

A 0.5 kg mass moves 40 centimeters up the incline shown in the figure below. The vertical height of the incline is 7 centimeters.

What is the change in the potential energy (in Joules) of the mass as it goes up the incline?  

If a force of 1.0 N pulled up and parallel to the surface of the incline is required to raise the mass back to the top of the incline, how much work is done by that force?

Given Information:  

Mass = m = 0.5 kg

Horizontal distance = d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Vertical distance = h = 7 cm = 0.07 m

Normal force = Fn = 1 N

Required Information:  

Potential energy = PE = ?

Work done = W = ?

Answer:

Potential energy = 0.343 Joules

Work done = 0.39 N.m

Explanation:

The potential energy is given by

PE = mgh

where m is the mass of the object, h is the vertical distance and g is the gravitational acceleration.

PE = 0.5*9.8*0.07

PE = 0.343 Joules

As you can see in the attached image

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse

sinθ = 0.07/0.4

θ = sin⁻¹(0.07/0.4)

θ = 10.078°

The horizontal component of the normal force is given by

Fx = Fncos(θ)

Fx = 1*cos(10.078)

Fx = 0.984 N

Work done is given by

W = Fxd

where d is the horizontal distance

W = 0.984*0.4

W = 0.39 N.m

Explain what is meant by “field” and compare the properties of gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces in terms of particle
notsponge [240]
Field in this context refers to a region of the space to which corresponds a value.

There is a gravitational field around the earth, because a mass m placed at any point around the earth will be atracted (gravitational force) by it.

There is an electric field in a point when a charge placed there feels an electric force.

The gravitational field is proportional to the value of the mass of the object that produces it.

The electric field is proportional to the magnitude of the charge of the particle that produces it.

The gravitational field is always attractive. The electric field may be attractive or repulsive.

Both fields are proportional to the inverse of the squared distance.

The magnetic field is created when a charge is in movement,i.e a charge in movement will create a magnetid fiedl around it that will act and create a magnetic force over other charge also in movement.

The magnetic field is proportional to the product of the charge times its velocity and inversely proportional to the squared distance. The force generated my be attractive or repulsive.
