A 20.0 kg box slides down a 12.0 m long incline at an angle of 3.0 degrees with the horizontal. A force of 50.0 N is applied to the box to try to pull it up the incline. The applied force makes an angle of 0.00 degrees to the incline. If the incline has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.100, then the increase in the kinetic energy of the box is

A. 300 J.
B. 372 J.
C. 410 J.
