Hello!
Because as you get closer to the surface of the earth, the more air that is on top of you. At the top of the atmosphere, there is less air, and everything is a vacuum, where you have no weight. When you get close to the earth, the weight of the air builds until it when you're at the very lowest point of the earths surface, all the air in the atmosphere above you is pressing down.
Thank You!
I am not sure if this is what your looking for but most machines use oil
Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.

Work done</h3>
Work done is simply defined as the energy transfer that takes place when an object is either pushed or pulled over a certain distance by an external force. It is expressed as;
W = F × d
Where F is force applied or Weight and d is distance
Also Force = Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.
Since gravity is acting on the boxes as it been lift
W = Weight × height from ground level
W = mg × d
Where m is mass of the boxes, g is accelration due to gravity( g = 9.8m/s² ) and d is distance from ground level.
Given the data in the question;
- Since each box has a mass of 7.89 kg
- Mass of the 345 boxes = 345 × 7.89 kg = 2722.05kg
- Distance or height d = 6.0m
To determine the work done, we substitute our values into the expression above.
W = mg × d
W = 2722.05kg × 9.8m/s² × 6.0m
W = 160056.5kgm²/s²
W = 160056.5J
W = 1.6 × 10⁵J
Therefore, Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.
