Solution

Dear student,i)work done=mass×g×hW=200×6×10=12000Jii) From equations of motion, the relation connecting the initial velocity (u) and final velocity (v) of an object moving with a uniform acceleration a, and the displacement, s from Newtons second law of motion F = m a. work done by the force, F is written as the following:w=mav2-u22a=12m(v2-u2)If the object is starting from its stationary position, that is, u = 0, thenw=12mv2From work and energy theorem, work done is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object.K.E=12mv2Regards
