Roger pushes a box on a 30° incline. If he applies a force of 60 newtons parallel to the incline and displaces the box 10 meters along the incline, how much work will he do on the box?

Work = Force * distance

He's going up an incline but pushing parallel to the ground. Draw out a diagram to show what's going on. )


Work =  force* distance*Cos(incline angle)
60 N force * 10 meters * cos(30)
= 519.61 J
