What kind of work is done when lifting a car whose weight is 9.8 kn, using a lift to a height of 180 cm?

Initial data: P (weight of the car being lifted with a lift) = 9.8 kN (9.8 * 10 ^ 3 N); h (height to which the car was raised) = 180 cm (1.8 m).

The work that was done when lifting the car with a lift can be calculated using the formula: A = F * s = P * h.

Let’s make a calculation: A = 9.8 * 10 ^ 3 * 1.8 = 17.64 * 10 ^ 3 J (17.64 kJ).

Answer: When the car is lifted, the work will be 17.64 kJ.
