Work = (force) x (distance)

Each time she lifts the weight, she does

          (550 N) x (0.5 m) = 275 joules of work against gravity.

Each time she lets the bar down gently, gravity does

          (550 N) x (0.5 m) = 275 joules of work against her muscles. 

If the human physical muscular system were 100% efficient, and capable
of absorbing work as well as spending it, then the bodybuilder would do
exactly zero work in the process of 1-up followed by 1-down.

How does a change in thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?
Mnenie [13.5K]
Thermal energy gives the particles of the substance kinetic energy because temperature is an average measure of kinetic enegy of the particle. If we give them thermal energy the particle will move faster, gaining enough energy to escape and become free. For example, from solid to liquid, the particles would espace their fixed position and be free to move as a liquid.
