A block weighing 15 Newtons is pulled to the top of an incline that is 0.20 meter above the ground, as show in the associated picture. If 4.0 joules of work are needed to pull the block the full length of the incline, how much work is done against friction?

• 1 J

• 0 J

• 3 J

• 7 J

As the time required to do a given quantity of work decreases, the power developed

• decreases

• increases

• remains the same
