Explanation:
A lever is a rigid bar which moves freely about a fixed point called fulcrum....
The types of lever are :
- First class lever
- Second class lever
- Third class lever....
8.16m is the required height, a 5kg stone need to be raised.
One sort of potential energy is gravitational potential energy, which is equal to the product of the object's mass (m), the gravitational acceleration (g), and the object's height (h) as measured in relation to the ground's surface (the body).
We obtain the formula by considering the work done in raising a mass m through a height h.
Work in elevating mass m through height h is equal to force times distance.
The force must be greater than the mass m's weight, hence F = mg.
Work done = mgh = gravitational potential energy
Energy = Mass of the object × gravitational acceleration × height.
Mass of the stone = 5kg
Equating ;
∴ 400 J = 5 kg × 9.8 m/s² × height
Height = 8.16 m
Therefore, 8.16m is the required height.

Answer: The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Weight = Mass × Acceleration
Let the mass of the space probe be m
Acceleration due to gravity on the earth = g
Weight of the space probe on earth = W
Acceleration due to gravity on the Jupiter = g' = 2.5g
Weight of the space probe on earth = W'
The weight of the space probe on the Jupiter will be 2.5 times the weight of the space probe on earth.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
