Does the work you do on a book when you lift it onto a shelf depend on the path taken?

No. That's one of the properties of gravity ... the work required to go from
one point to another depends only on the difference in height between the
two points, and not on the path. A 'field' in which this is true is called a
'conservative' field. The electrostatic field is another one.

Does the weight change when you lift an object from one shelf to a higher shelf?
Yes very very slightly.
If you lift a bag of sugar to one shelf then another does it get easier the higher you go up?
No
How is work done when you lift a book?
the angle in which you lift the book , also known as the movement
How much work will it take to lift a 6kg toolbox 1.5 meters onto a shelf in the garage?
88.2 J
Pages 64 to 65 of your reading material trace an extended problem that involves lifting abag of sugar up to a shelf at firt it is lifted to one shelf then it is lifted again to a second higher shelf b?
the job gets easier the higher you lift the object
What energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf?
The potential energy of the book on the shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf. This is because the potential energy of an object at a certain height is equivalent to the work done against gravity to lift it to that height.
Is t true the kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf?
no
True or false the kinetic energy of a book shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf?
false
The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf?
no, but the POTENTIAL energy may equal the work done to life the book to the shelf
What is the relationship between the work done to lift a book to place it on a bookshelf and the potential energy of the book on the shelf?
There is no direct relationship because the potential energy of the book on the shelf is defined relative to an arbitrary base line at which the potential energy would be zero. The work done in raising the book is the increase in the potential energy of book from however much PE it had in its previous location - for example, on a lower shelf.
Does the weight change when you lift an object from one shelf to a higher shelf?
Yes very very slightly.
Can you paint shelf liner?
You can paint shelf liner but it may not look so good if it starts to lift.
Does the lift depend on the surface area of the balloons?
NO...
If you lift a bag of sugar to one shelf then another does it get easier the higher you go up?
No
How is work done when you lift a book?
the angle in which you lift the book , also known as the movement
How much weight can a mouse lift?
The weight that a mouse can lift will depend on its size. It is estimated that mice can lift things that twice their body weight.
What precautions should be taken when refueling a gas lift?
turn off the lift and vent the tank
