Q47 of 146 Page 145

How much is the mass of a man if he has to do 2500 joules of work is climbing a tree 5 m tall? (g = 10 m s2)

Given:

Work done in climbing, w = 2500J


Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10m/s2


Height above the ground = 5m


We know,


W = mgh


= 2500/10 × 5


=50Kg


Hence, Mass of the man = 50 kg
