Answer:

Explanation:

The total work done by the wave is expressed as;

Workdone = Potential energy + Kinetic energy

Workdone = mgh + 1/2mv²

m is the mass = 77kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

v is the velocity = 8.2m/s

h is the height = 1.65m

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = 77(9.8)(1.65) + 1/2(77)8.2²

Workdone = 1245.09 + 2588.74

Workdone = 3833.83Joules

Hence the amount of non conservative work done on the sofa is 3833.83Joules
