is it a significant figure issue?
all the data is 2 sig fig, while your answer is 4
A mass m = 17 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =5.4 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 32° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.36. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 32° (thus on the incline it is parallel to the surface) and has a tension T =75 N.
4) What is the work done by gravity after the block has traveled a distance x = 3 m up the incline? (Where x is measured along the incline.
this what i tried but it's wrong
(17)(9.8)(sin32)(3) = 275.6
Please explain it with the correct answer
