(a) For the work-energy theorem, the work done to lift the can of paint is equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by it, therefore it is equal to

where m=3.4 kg is the mass of the can, g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration and
is the variation of height. Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

(b) In this case, the work done is zero. In fact, we know from its definition that the work done on an object is equal to the product between the force applied F and the displacement:

However, in this case there is no displacement, so d=0 and W=0, therefore the work done to hold the can stationary is zero.
(c) In this case, the work done is negative, because the work to lower the can back to the ground is done by the force of gravity, which pushes downward. Its value is given by the same formula used in part (a):

First, determine the mass of the object by dividing its weight on Earth by 9.8 m/s² as shown below,
m = 250 N / 9.8 m/s² = 25.51 kg
Then, multiply the obtained mass by the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto.
W (in Pluto) = (25.51 kg) x (0.61 m/s²) = 15.56 N
Therefore, the object will only weigh 15.56 N.
Answer: the lvl wud remain the same
Explanation: as per Archimedes Principle, the weight of the water displaced by the object is equal to the weight of the object. When the ship initially went into the pool, it wud hv displaced some water. When the anchor is dropped, the level does not change coz the anchor was already in the ship and no extra weight has been added, so the weight of the anchor has already been accounted for in the first place when the ship was first placed in the pool
