What factor affects the amount of energy needed to change state

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to change the state of a substance depends upon the mass and characteristics of that substance. The energy required to change the state of a material is known as the latent heat.

weight of the box is given as

here this is placed on the inclined of angle 42 degree

now this weight will have two components one is along the incline other is perpendicular to it

so here we need to apply a force parallel to incline opposite to its component of weight

so here the component of weight is given as

here we have

so it requires 75 n force to move it upwards
