What work is done when lifting a hydraulic hammer with a mass of 20 tons to a height of 120 cm?

Given: t = 20 m = 20,000 kg; S = 120cm = 1.2m

Find: A -?

This problem is solved similarly to the previous one, but you need to forget about the dimensions:

A = F * S; F = mg

А = mgS = 20,000 • 10 • 1.2 = 240,000 J = 240 kJ
Answer: A = 240 kJ
