Step 1
Step 1: The work done by a force is given by the equation: $W = Fd\cos(\theta)$ where $W$ is the work done, $F$ is the force, $d$ is the displacement, and $\theta$ is the angle between the force and the displacement. Show moreā¦

To push a 6-kg crate up a frictionless incline angled at 55° to the horizontal, a worker exerts a force of 170 N parallel to the incline. The crate moves a distance of 3 m (use g = 10 m/s^2). What work is done on the crate by the worker? -103 J Remember that the work is the dot product of the force and displacement vectors. W = F * d * cos(θ). Because the force applied by the worker and the displacement are parallel, θ = 0, and W = F * d. What work is done on the crate by gravity? What is the work done on the crate due to the normal force on the inclined plane surface? What is the net work done on the crate? If the crate begins at rest, what is the final speed of the crate as it moves from the bottom to the top of the inclined plane? m/s

To push a 6-kg crate up a frictionless incline angled at 40° to the horizontal, a worker exerts a force of 170 N parallel to the incline. The crate moves a distance of 7 m, (use g = 10 m/s2). What work is done on the crate by the worker? What work is done on the crate by gravity? What is the work done on the crate due to the normal force of the inclined plane surface? What is the net work done on the crate? If the crate begins at rest, what is the final speed of the crate as it is moved from the bottom to the top of the inclined plane?
