Displacement is how far something is from its starting position

for example if X moved 10 feet, turned around and moved 30 feet, its distance would be 40, but the displacement would be 20,
and if Y Moved 2 feet, and turned around and moved 22 feet, its distance would be 24, but its displacement would also be 20

A crane lifts an air conditioner to the top of a building. If the building is 12 m high, and the air conditioner has a mass of 2
andrey2020 [161]

Work needed = 23,520 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

height = 12 m

mass = 200 kg

Required

work needed by the crane

Solution

Work is the transfer of energy caused by the force acting on a moving object  

Work is the product of force with the displacement of objects.  

Can be formulated  

W = F x d  

W = Work, J, Nm  

F = Force, N  

d = distance, m  

F = m x g

Input the value :

W = mgd

W = 200 kg x 9.8 m/s²x12 m

W = 23520 J
