How much work is done lifting a 12-m chain that is initially coiled on the ground and has a density 2 kg/m so that its top end is 8 m above the ground? (assume that acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 m/s2.)

W = 627.2 J

Explanation:

Given:

= 2kg/m

length of chain = 12 m

length pulled will be = 8 m

We know

Work done (W) = mgh

where

m = mass of the object

g= acceleration due to gravity

h = displacement

For a small length dy of the chain, the work done can be written as:

dW  = (mass of the small length pulled)× g×dy

dW = 2kg/m ×dy×9.8×y

where, y is the distance from the ground level of the end of chain

integerating the above equation

W =

W =

W = 627.2 J

does anyone know or what?

myth. it was once thought that animals, including cats and dogs, could only see in black and white. however, scientists have proven this to be a myth. in all animals, including humans, the perception of colour is determined by the presence of cells in the eye called cone photoreceptors.
