A 45 kg block of ice slides down a frictionless incline 1.5 m long and 0.91 m high. A worker pushes up on the ice parallel to the incline so that it slides down at constant speed.
  1. Find the force exerted by the worker.
  2. Find the work done on the block by the worker.
  3. Find the work done by the weight of the block.
  4. Find the work done by the normal force exerted by the surface of the incline on the block,
  5. and the net work done on the block.
