Answer:

756 feet pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the chain, L = 18 feet

weight of chain, W = 84 pound

If we lift the centre of gravity of the chain, it will entirely lift up. The centre of gravity of the uniform chain is at its mid point. So, the work done

W = weight x half of length

W = 84 x 9

W = 756 feet pound

Step-by-step explanation:

32 is read off as "one 3, one 2" = 1312

1312 is read off as "one 1, one 3, one 1, one 2" = 11131112

11131112 is read off as "three 1s, one 3, three 1s, one 2" = 31133112

31133112 is read off as "one 3, two 1s, two 3s, two 1s, one 2" = 1321232112
