A 5kg rock is lifted 2m. Find the amount of work done.

The amount of work done on the rock is equal to 98 Nm.

Given the following data:

To determine the amount of work done:

First of all, we would calculate the force acting on the rock:

Force = 49 Newton

Now, we can determine the amount of work done:

Work done = 98 Nm

98J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock  = 5kg

Height = 2m

Unknown:

Work done  = ?

Solution:

The amount of work done is given as:

 Work done  = Force x distance

 Work done = Weight x height

  Work done  = mgH

Now insert the parameters and solve;

 Work done  = 5 x 9.8 x 2 = 98J

d eras and periods

the ima (higher than 1m) will be greater than the ima with the height of 1m.
