The first thing you should know for this case is that work is defined as the product of force by the distance traveled in the direction of force.
 We have then:
 W = Fd
 The distance varies, so we must integrate:
 from 0 to 20:
 W = ∫F (x) dx
 W = ∫32xdx
 W = 32∫xdx
 W = 32 (x ^ 2/2) = (16) (20 ^ 2) = 6400 ft * lbs
 answer:
 6400 ft * lbs is work done pulling the rope up 20 ft

So lost on this one number 1 ?

Read each statement, one at a time, and form the picture in your mind.

<em>Statement #1</em> should make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Statements #2, #3, and #4 should make your red flag wave on the inside, and should make you giggle on the outside when you realize how absurd each of those is.

A toy balloon contains 0.75 L of helium at a pressure of 101 kPa. The balloon rises until the pressure on the balloon is 85 kPa.
Aleksandr [31]

<h3>The answer is 0.89 L</h3>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{101000 \times 0.75}{85000}  =  \frac{75750}{85000}  \\  = 0.89117647...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.89 L</h3>

Hope this helps you
