An object can possess kinetic energy, the energy of motion, and/or potential energy, the energy of position. Energy can be transferred in many ways, one of which is in the form of work. Work, w, is the energy transferred when an object is caused to move a distance, d, against a force, F. Mathematically, we would write this as w = Fd Force is the product of mass, m, and acceleration, a: F = ma When the acceleration is due to gravity, the symbol g is used instead of a, and its value is g = 9.81 m middot s-2 . How much work is done when a 205g tomato is lifted 13.3m ? Express your answer with the appropriate units. This question will be shown after you complete previous question(s).

Explanation / Answer

wor kd = mgh = .205 * 9.81 * 13.3   =26.746965 Joules
