Question Number 12611 by tawa last updated on 26/Apr/17
A drum of mass 100g is rolled into the deck of a lorry 1.5m above a   horizontal floor using a plank 4m long. calculate the workdone against  gravity during the process. (g = 10m/s^2 ).
$$\mathrm{A}\:\mathrm{drum}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{mass}\:\mathrm{100g}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{rolled}\:\mathrm{into}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{deck}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{lorry}\:\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{5m}\:\mathrm{above}\:\mathrm{a}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{horizontal}\:\mathrm{floor}\:\mathrm{using}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{plank}\:\mathrm{4m}\:\mathrm{long}.\:\mathrm{calculate}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{workdone}\:\mathrm{against} \\ $$$$\mathrm{gravity}\:\mathrm{during}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{process}.\:\left(\mathrm{g}\:=\:\mathrm{10m}/\mathrm{s}^{\mathrm{2}} \right). \\ $$

W=mgh=0.1×10×1.5=1.5 J
$${W}={mgh}=\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{10}×\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{5}=\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{5}\:{J} \\ $$
