Question

A 4.6-kg block is pushed 2.3 m up a vertical wall with constant speed by a constant force of magnitude F applied at an angle of 

? = 30°

 with the horizontal, as shown in the figure below. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and wall is 0.30, determine the following.

A figure, drawn from a side view, shows the right side of a rectangular block pushed up against a rough, vertical wall. A force vector F acts on the block and is represented by a diagonal rrow pointing up and to the right, toward the center of the block's left side. The arrow forms an angle ? with the horizontal.
(a) the work done by 
F

 J

(b) the work done by the force of gravity
 J

(c) the work done by the normal force between block and wall
 J

(d) By how much does the gravitational potential energy increase during the block's motion?
 J
