Expert Solution
Given data:

The mass of the block, m = 32 kg

The horizontal displacement of the block, d = 5.2 m

The applied force, Fa = 63 N

The angle between the applied force and the horizontal, θ = 18°

The coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.25

Solution for (c):

The force of gravity is directed vertically downwards and the displacement of the block is in a horizontal direction, hence the angle between the direction of the force due to gravity and the displacement of the block is 270° (in a counterclockwise direction). 

The work done by a force is a dot product of the force and the displacement. Therefore,

Wg=Fg dWg = Fgd cos 270°Wg = 0                            ---(cos 270° = 0)

Therefore, the work done by the force of gravity on the block is 0 J.
