A grocery cart with a mass of 10 kg is being pushed at constant speed up a 25° ramp by a force Fp which acts parallel to the incline. (Ignore the friction) a. Draw a free-body diagram of the cart showing all the forces acting on it. b. Find the work done by each of the forces (W, Fn, Fp) on the cart if the ramp is 7.5 m long. Hints: The question is very similar to the question of a piano sliding down an incline discussed in class. However, here the object is pushed up the incline. The forces Fn = mgcos(0), and Fp = mgsin(0), so don't spend time getting these using Newton's 2nd law. Also, the weight is W = mg. c. Find the net work done on the cart.

Hi please help with the following: After hitting a long fly ball that goes over the right fielder's head and lands in the outfield, the batter decides to keep going past second base and try for third base. The 59 kg player begins sliding 3.40 m from the base with a speed of 4.35 m/s. If the player comes to rest at third base, how much work was done on the player by friction?
