Solution

The correct option is C $8.3 m$
Given:
Work done, $W = 1250 J$
Force, $F = 150 N$

Let the distance the rock was raised be $s$ .
Work done is the product of force and displacement of the body along the force.
$W = F s$
$s = \frac{1250}{150} = 8. ¯ 3 m$

Thus, the rock was lifted through a distance of $8.3 m$ .
