A block is carried slowly up an inclined plane. If \(W_f\) is work done by the friction, \(W_N\) is work done by the reaction force, \(W_g\) is work done by the gravitational force, and \(W_{ex}\) is the work done by an external force, then choose the correct relation(s):
1. \(W _N +   W _f   +   W _g   +   W _{ex}   =   0\)
2. \(W _N   =   0\)
3. \(   W _f   +   W _{ex}   =    - W _g\)
4. All of these

1. constant

2. proportional to \(\mathrm{x}\)

The figure shows the potential energy function U(x) for a system in which a particle is in a one-dimensional motion. What is the direction of the force when the particle is in region AB? (symbols have their usual meanings)

                        

1.  The positive direction of x

2.  The negative direction of X

3.  Force is zero, so direction not defined

4.  The negative direction of y
