Problem

A block of mass 2.5 kg2.5\text{ kg} is pushed 2.20 m2.20\text{ m} along a frictionless horizontal table by a constant force of 16 N16\text{ N} directed 45∘45^\circ above the horizontal. Determine the work done by (1) the applied force, (2) the normal force exerted by the table, (3) the force of gravity, and (4) determine the total work done on the block.
