Hiiii 
Work done in moving upward to inclination is 
E = Wfriction + Wgravity
Let the length at which the block will travel be L.
So, E = (mewmgcosQ)*L + mgsinQ* L ( I hve assumed alpha = Q) ….............1
 
Work done by friction = k *mew*mgcosQ*L.......................2
 
Work done aginst friction = 2/1
 
You will get ans as D .
