Arare and valuable antique chest is being moved into a truck using a 4.00 m long ramp. the kj weight of the chest plus packing material is 1,500 n. if the truck bed is 1.00 m above the ground, find the work done by the movers as they slide the chest up the ramp if the coefficient of friction between the chest and the ramp is 0.200.

First let us calculate for the angle of inclination using the sin function,

sin θ = 1 m / 4 m

θ = 14.48°

Then we calculate the work done by the movers using the formula:

W = Fnet * d

So we must calculate for the value of Fnet first. Fnet is force due to weight minus the frictional force.

Fnet = m g sinθ – μ m g cosθ

Fnet = 1,500 sin14.48 – 0.2 * 1,500 * cos14.48

Fnet = 84.526 N

So the work exerted is equal to:

W = 84.526 N * 4 m

W = 338.10 J
