Consider an elliptically shaped rail $P Q$ in the vertical plane with $O P=3 \ m$ and $OQ =4 \ m$. A block of mass $1 \ kg$ is pulled along the rail from $P$ to $Q$ with a force of $18 \ N$, Which is always parallel to line $PQ$ (see the figure given). Assuming no frictional losses, the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches $Q$ is $(n \times 10)$ joules. The value of $n$ is (take acceleration due to gravity $=10 \ ms ^{-2}$ )
