Question\qquad 3. An object of mass mm is released from rest on a surface with a circular cross-section of radius rr. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the surface of the arc is μk\mu_{\mathrm{k}}. The block slides through angle theta, reaching its lowest point, and then slides upwards through angle phi, coming to rest at point P2P_{2}. What is the work done by the force of friction on the block? a. mgr(cos(θ1)cos(θ2))m g r\left(\cos \left(\theta_{1}\right)-\cos \left(\theta_{2}\right)\right) b. mgr(cos(θ2)cos(θ1))m g r\left(\cos \left(\theta_{2}\right)-\cos \left(\theta_{1}\right)\right) c. mgr(cos(θ1)+cos(θ2))m g r\left(\cos \left(\theta_{1}\right)+\cos \left(\theta_{2}\right)\right) d. mgrm g r \qquad 4. A woman runs up a flight of stairs. The gain in her gravitational potential energy is UU. If she runs up the same stairs with twice the speed, what is her gain in potential energy? a. UU b. 2U2 U c. 12U\frac{1}{2} U d. 4U4 U 2

Studdy Solution
The work done by friction is mgr(cos(ϕ)cos(θ))mgr(\cos(\phi) - \cos(\theta)), which is answer (b).
