A 65.0-kg file cabinet of is sliding down a rough ramp for a distance of 5.00 m as shown. The friction force on the box is 75.0 N. During this process, what is the work
done on the cabinet by its own weight, in Joule? Use g = 10.0 m/s². (Hint: What is the angle between the weight force and the displacement?)
Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit
is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.

Analyze the problems carefully, then solve them. Be systematic when answering. Write the given, label them; the required; and all calculations pertinent to the problem. Express your numerical answers with the appropriate number of significant figures.
A chain of length 11 m and a mass per unit length of 0.6 kg/m initially lies coiled on the ground. Find the work done
(in Joules) in raising one end of the chain to a height 15 m above the ground.
Use g = 9.81 m/s² for the acceleration due to gravity. Write only the numerical answer in the box below. Do not
include the units. To be graded correct, your answer must be correct to three significant digits.
