I've got an energy and work problem. the premise of the problem is: a crate with a mass of m is on a ramp that is inclined at an angle of 30° from the horizontal. a force with a magnitude of f directed parallel to the ramp is used to pull the crate with a constant speed up the ramp a distance of d. there are a set of subquestions and i've answered them as best as i can, but i don't think i'm right. could someone give me the answers and me understand why i'm wrong? 1. what is the work done on the crate by the applied force f? --i said cos30 * f * displacement 2. 2. what is the work done on the crate by the gravitational force exerted on the crate by earth? --i said m*9.8*tan30 3. what is the work done on the crate by the normal force, with a magnitude of fn, exerted on the crate by the ramp? (hint: recall that the normal force is perpendicular to the surface of the ramp.) --i said zero 4. what is the work done on the crate by the frictional force fk? --i don't understand this one 5. what is the total force acting on the crate? --i said f, as in the pre-defined force 'f' 6. what is the work done on the crate by the total force? --i don't understand how this is different from the first one

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
