Problem 12

Calculate A child in a tree house uses a rope attached to a basket to lift a 22-N dog upward through a distance of 4.7 m into the house. How much work does the child do in lifting the dog?

Problem 12

A child in a tree house uses a rope attached to a basket to lift a \(22-\mathrm{N}\) dog upward through a distance of \(4.7 \mathrm{~m}\) into the house. How much work does the child do in lifting the dog?

Problem 13

Calculate To move a suitcase up to the check-in stand at an airport, a student pushes with a horizontal force through a distance of 0.95 m. If the work done by the student is 32 J, what is the magnitude of the force he exerts?
