Homework Statement
Consider the mass m1 on a simple incline plane. It passes from point A downwards with the velocity v0 and stops at point B (still on the plane).
What is the work done by the normal force on mass m during the complete motion?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
In my book it says zero but I don't think it is because the mass moves diagonally down which shows movement in x and y axis. Since the normal force acting on the mass isn't perpendicular to the y-axis movement. It should do work in the opposite direction. What do you think?
