A crate has a weight of 1500 lb. If it is pulled along the ground at a constant speed for a distance of 20 ft, and the towing cable makes an angle of 15° with the horizontal, determine the tension in the cable and the work done by the towing force. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ground is μk = 0.55.
