Abulldozer does 4,500 j of work to push a mound of soil to the top of a ramp that is 15 m high. the ramp is at an
angle of 35° to the ground. how much force did the bulldozer apply to the mound of soil? round your answer to two
significant figures.

170 N

Explanation:

Given in the question that, work a bulldozer can do = 4500 J

We will use trigonometry identity to find the distance bulldozer will travel up the hill

sin(35) = opp/hypo

sin(35) = 15/hypo

hypo = 15/sin(35)

hypo = 26.15m

Formula to use

work done = force × distance

Plug values in the above formula

4500 = force x 26.15

force = 4500/26.15

force = 172.08

force ≈ 170 N
