    How to calculate work from force applied at downward angle and friction

    fizzsucks, The only thing that could be wrong with steps 1 and 3 is my interpretation of downward angle. I'm assuming that a downward angle of 35 degrees means that the force is applied at an angle of 35 degrees with respect to the horizontal axis. In other words, an angle of 0 degrees would...

    How to calculate work from force applied at downward angle and friction

    Homework Statement If you exert a force of 175 N at a downward angle of 35 degrees on a box with a total mass of 125kg for a distance of 15m, and the box and the floor have a uk of 0.25, what is the work done? Homework Equations F= (m)(a) Fk= (uk) (Fn) W = (F)(d) The Attempt at a...
