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

Comedians like to joke that the reason we haven’t been visited by intelligent life from elsewhere in the universe is that aliens have been monitoring earth’s broadcasts of intellectually embarrassing tv programs, like gilligan’s island, fear factor, the jersey shore, and the jerry springer showand so consider us far too primitive to merit a visit. let’s check the assertion that aliens could have been receiving them. tv programs are broadcast at a frequency of about 100mhz with about 100kw of total power in 30frames per second, which emanatesroughly uniformly in all directions. assume that interstellar space transmits these broadcasts without attenuation. no matter how smart they are, aliens would require at least one photon per frame to interpret our signals. findthe number of photons per unit time per unit area reaching a receiver on a possible planet in the nearest star system, which is about 4 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year). if aliens aimed a receiver or detector directly at earth, how big (in diameter) would it have to be to receive a photon per frame
