The only definite number we can tell you is that in order to lift
a 100kg box, you have to somehow provide a force of about
980 newtons (about 220 pounds) pointing upward.  That's the
weight of the box, and you have to lift with at least that much force
just to get the box off the ground.

After that, the answer to your question is 'YES'.  The time it takes
depends on how much force you have available, how far you want
to lift the box, and how fast.

Here are the Physics formulas you have to use:

-- The amount of "Work" you'll do is

    (the amount of force you use) times (how far up you lift the box) .

-- The "Power" (amount of watts) you'll use is

    (the amount of 'work' you do) divided by (the length of time it takes).  

So ...

-- The higher you lift the box, the more 'work' your lift-machine does.

-- The faster the box is lifted, the more 'power' your lift-machine needs.

The third floor of a house is 8m above street level. How much work is needed to move a 136kg refrigerator to the third floor?
jonny [76]

m = Mass of the refrigerator to be moved to third floor = 136 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity by earth on the refrigerator being moved = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height to which the refrigerator is moved  = 8 m

W = Work done in lifting the object

Work done in lifting the object is same as the gravitational potential energy gained by the refrigerator. hence

Work done = Gravitation potential energy of refrigerator

W = m g h

inserting the values

W = (136) (9.8) (8)

W = 10662.4 J

Anarel [89]
S: 198 m 
v=39 m/s 
u=0
t=? 
a=?

v²=u²+2as
(39)²=(0)²+2(a)(198) 
1521=396a
1521/396=a
3.84 m/s^2 = a
