Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a 2 kg object is lifted to a height of 5 m, what is the work done against gravity? (g = 10 m/s²) (2019)
  • Step 1: Identify the mass of the object. In this case, the mass (m) is 2 kg.
  • Step 2: Identify the height to which the object is lifted. Here, the height (h) is 5 m.
  • Step 3: Identify the acceleration due to gravity. In this problem, g is given as 10 m/s².
  • Step 4: Use the formula for work done against gravity, which is Work Done = m * g * h.
  • Step 5: Substitute the values into the formula: Work Done = 2 kg * 10 m/s² * 5 m.
  • Step 6: Calculate the result: 2 * 10 * 5 = 100.
  • Step 7: Conclude that the work done against gravity is 100 Joules (J).
