The velocities and the speed build a triangle, where the 1.7 m/s are the hypotenuse and the x-velocity and y-velocity are the other sides.
<span>So the x-velocity is: speed*cos(angle) </span>
<span>now plug in </span>
<span>x=1.7 m/s * cos(18.5)=1.597 m/s </span>
Work done by a given force is given by

here on sled two forces will do work
1. Applied force by Max
2. Frictional force due to ground
Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement
work done by Max = 

Now similarly work done by frictional force



Now total work done on sled


What is the Investigation about!
Answer:
r = 4.44 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we use the Archimedes principle, which states that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the dislodged fluid
B = ρ g V
Now let's use Newton's equilibrium relationship
B - W = 0
B = W
The weight of the system is the weight of the man and his accessories (W₁) plus the material weight of the ball (W)
σ = W / A
W = σ A
The area of a sphere is
A = 4π r²
W = W₁ + σ 4π r²
The volume of a sphere is
V = 4/3 π r³
Let's replace
ρ g 4/3 π r³ = W₁ + σ 4π r²
If we use the ideal gas equation
P V = n RT
P = ρ RT
ρ = P / RT
P / RT g 4/3 π r³ - σ 4 π r² = W₁
r² 4π (P/3RT r - σ) = W₁
Let's replace the values
r² 4π (1.01 10⁵ / (3 8.314 (70 + 273)) r - 0.060) = 13000
r² (11.81 r -0.060) = 13000 / 4pi
r² (11.81 r - 0.060) = 1034.51
As the independent term is very small we can despise it, to find the solution
r = 4.44 m
