A moving company is called into a building and asked to relocate 520 bricks to a location 15 meters above the ground. If each brick is 4 kilograms, what amount of work will be needed to accomplish the task? A. 305,760 J B. 229,320 J C. 203,840 J D. 588,000 J

Respuesta :

Work = Force * distance (aka Weight * height lifted)

Work to lift 1 brick:
W = mgh = (4 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(15 m) = 588 J

Work to lift 520 bricks:
W = 520(588 J) = 305,760 J
