**Problem Description:**

A 100.0000-kg man pushes a crate 3.0000 m up along a ramp that makes an angle of 20° with the horizontal. He exerts a force of 500.0000 N on the crate parallel to the ramp and moves at a constant speed.

**Questions:**

(a) Calculate the work done by the man against his own weight to get up the ramp.

\[ W_{\text{man} \rightarrow \text{mg}} = \, \boxed{ } \, \text{J} \]

(b) Calculate the work done by the man on the crate to get it up the ramp.

\[ W_{\text{man} \rightarrow \text{crate}} = \, \boxed{ } \, \text{J} \]

(c) Calculate the total work done to get both the man and the crate up the ramp.

\[ W_{\text{total}} = \, \boxed{ } \, \text{J} \]
