Answer:

Workdone = 147Nm

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 3m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s²

First of all, we would find the force applied;

[tex] Force = mass * acceleration [/tex]

Force = 5*9.8

Force = 49N

Now, to find the workdone;

[tex] Workdone = force * distance [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 49 * 3

Workdone = 147Nm
