A beam will be raised into a truck by using the incline along the 2.5 m. The required force of 400 N. If the high-field
skewed 2 m, what is the weight of the beam? (Use way)

We assume that the friction force along the inclined plane is not significant.  Also we assume that the beam is pulled along the incline at a small speed and with a  negligible acceleration.
 
    Incline is 2 meters high and the length of the inclined on the ground is 2.5 meters.  So the skew or slope of the incline is 2/2.5 = 0.8 
           
      tan Ф = slope of incline,  where Ф = angle of incline.
      W = weight of the beam
 
      W Sin Ф = force required to pull the beam = 400 N
              W = 400 / √(1+0.8²) = 400/√1.64 = 312.35 Newtons
