Work done against the gravity = Total weight*Vertical distance covered.

Total weight = 170+10 = 180 lb
Vertical distance covered = 40 ft

Therefore,

Work done = 180*40 = 7200 lb-ft

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

v?

Explanation:

v = ∆s / ∆t

v =?

∆s = 236 - 218 = 18km

=t = 10: 30 - 10:15 = 15 minutes to hour 15/60 = 0.25h

v = 18 / 0.25

v = 72km / h

speed of 72km / h
