To use standard units, convert the mass to kilograms. Then use the formula: PE = mgh (potential energy = mass x gravity x height). Gravity is approximately 9.8. The answer will be in Joules.
a fallen treee is lifted 2.75 meters. How much work is done?
2 Newton-meters
107,800 J
How much work is done on a 50-kg cargo that is lifted by a pulley 10 m from the ground? (Disregard use of comma in writing digits.)
Work is done in lifting is equal to work done in opposing gravity. Work done in opposing gravity = weight times distance = 700 x 4 =2800 joules
a fallen treee is lifted 2.75 meters. How much work is done?
Work = Force applied over distance. So, distance is 14.5m, but how much force is applied? Force is equal to mass times acceleration, usually due to gravity. So, the force the tomato applies is .115kg * 9.81 m/sec2 = 1.12 Newton's. The work then is 16.2 Joules.
1400j
Work = force * distance Work = 23N * 2.3 meters = 53 Joules of work is done ==================

How much work is done on a 50-kg cargo that is lifted by a pulley 10 m from the ground? (Disregard use of comma in writing digits.)
work done is = to force multiply by displacement here force is = 1000x10 N and dispacement is 75m = 75x104
If a 100 N box is lifted 3 meters off the ground, the answer is 300 joules.
If a 100 N box is lifted 3 meters off the ground, the answer is 300 joules.
If a 100 N box is lifted 3 meters off the ground, the answer is 300 joules.
Work is done in lifting is equal to work done in opposing gravity. Work done in opposing gravity = weight times distance = 700 x 4 =2800 joules
