You are pushing a box (m = 4 kg) horizontally with a constant force F = 30 N. After pushing it for a distance d = 5 m, the box reaches a hill inclined at θ = 25°. You stop pushing the box as soon as it reaches the hill. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the road is µk = 0.4 and the hill is frictionless. How far up the hill is the box going to go?
