A particle of unit mass is moving along the x-axis under the influence of a force and its total energy is conserved. Four possible forms of the potential energy of the particle are given in Column I (a and U0 are constants). Match the potential energies in Column I to the corresponding statement(s) in Column II:
A small block of mass 1 kg is released from rest at the top of a rough track. The track is circular arc of radius 40 m. The block slides along the track without toppling and a frictional force acts on it in the direction opposite to the instantaneous velocity. The work done in overcoming the friction up to the point Q, as shown in the figure, below, is 150 J. (Take the acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2)
The magnitude of the normal reaction that acts on the block at the point Q is
