Ap physics, needed all work steps

A 20 kg wooden crate is dragged 12 m across a rough level floor by a rope. The force of tension in the rope is 50 N at an angle of 25° above the horizontal and the crate is moving at a constant speed of 1.50 m/s.


  1. Find the horizontal component of the force of tension in [N]. 
  2. Find the vertical component of the force of tension in [N]. 
  3. Find the magnitude of the weight of the crate in [N]. 
  4. Find the magnitude of the normal force acting on the crate in [N]. 
  5. Find the magnitude of the friction force acting on the crate in [N]. 
  6. Find the work done by the tension force in [J].
  7. Find the work done by the weight in [J].  
  8. Find the work done by the normal force in [J].
  9. Find the magnitude of the work done by the friction force in [J].  
  10. What is the total work done on the object in [J]?
  11. Find the coefficient of friction of the crate on the floor?
