A box with a weight of 50 N is lifted vertically upward by 3 m. What is the work done by gravity on the box? (Take g = 10 m/s2)
To find the work done by gravity, we use the formula:
Where:
is the gravitational force (weight) of the box, ,
is the distance the box is lifted, ,
is the angle between the gravitational force and displacement. Since the box is lifted upward while gravity acts downward, Click "Show Answer" to reveal the answer and analysis
