Can you calculate the work needed to lift a 20.0-N book 2.0m

This answer would be 40 J

40j

Yes, I can help you calculate the work needed to lift a 20.0-N book a distance of 2.0 meters.

To calculate the work, you can use the formula:

Work = Force x Distance

In this case, the force is 20.0 N (the weight of the book) and the distance is 2.0 m.

So, the work required to lift the book can be calculated as:

Work = 20.0 N x 2.0 m

Work = 40.0 Joules (J)

Therefore, the work needed to lift the 20.0-N book a distance of 2.0 meters is 40.0 Joules.
