CAIE A-Level Physics AS 5.1.2 The Principle of Conservation of Energy Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 1]

A block of mass 2.0 kg is released from rest on a slope. It travels 7.0 m down the slope and falls a vertical distance of 3.0 m . The block experiences a frictional force parallel to the slope of 5.0 N .
