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

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.

Two objects, one having three times the mass of the other, are dropped from the same height in a vacuum. At the end of their fal
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Two objects will have the equal velocities but the forces on both of them will not be equal. The equal velocities of these objects are due to their equal acceleration.

Explanation:

From the newton's equation

v^{2} -u^{2} = 2as

so here we can say that velocity does not depends on the mass.

The acceleration of both objects will be same but not the forces because

F = Ma

As the force is depending on the mass so it will not be the same for both objects.
