A coolie lifts a box of 15 kg from the ground to a height of 2m.Calculat the work done by the coolie.

Dear student,
The work done by the coolie will be,

Given, m = 15 kg, s = 2m, taking g = 9.8m/s2 
Now, force applied, F = mg = 15 x 9.8 = 147 N
therefore Work done, W= Fx s= 147 X 2 = 294 N.
​​​​​​
Hope this helps,

Regards.
