Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a box is 2.6 kg
(1) We need to find the work done on the box by this force as it is pushed up the 5.00-m ramp to a height of 3.00 m.
It means that the position of the object is 3 m i.e. h = 3 m
Work done = Fd
= mgh
So,
[tex]W=2.6\times 9.8\times 3\\\\W=76.44\ J[/tex]
(2) Now the gravitational potential energy that the box undergoes as it rises to its final height is equal to the work done by the box. So,
Change in potential energy = 76.44 J
