A barge of mass $5.0 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{kg}$ is pulled along the Erie Canal by two mules, walking along towpaths parallel to the canal on either side of it. The ropes harnessed to the mules make angles of $45^{\circ}$ to the canal. Each mule is pulling on its rope with a force of $1.0 \mathrm{kN} .$ How much work is done on the barge by both of these mules together as they pull the barge $150 \mathrm{m}$ along the canal?

A barge floating in fresh water has the form of a parallelepiped having dimensions of 10m x 30m x 3m. It weighs 4,500 kN when loaded with the center of gravity along its vertical axis 4m from the bottom. Find the metacentric height about its longest and shortest centerline, and determine whether or not the barge is stable.
