Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.
Work done is simply defined as the energy transfer that takes place when an object is either pushed or pulled over a certain distance by an external force. It is expressed as;
W = F × d
Where F is force applied or Weight and d is distance
Also Force = Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.
Since gravity is acting on the boxes as it been lift
W = Weight × height from ground level
W = mg × d
Where m is mass of the boxes, g is accelration due to gravity( g = 9.8m/s² ) and d is distance from ground level.
Given the data in the question;
To determine the work done, we substitute our values into the expression above.
W = mg × d
W = 2722.05kg × 9.8m/s² × 6.0m
W = 160056.5kgm²/s²
W = 160056.5J
W = 1.6 × 10⁵J
Therefore, Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.
