Work done in lifting a body is calculated by

• A. Mass of the body $\times$ vertical distance moved
• B. Force acting on a body $\times$ vertical distance moved
• C. Weight acting on the body $\times$ vertical distance moved
• D. None of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Weight acting on the body $\times$ vertical distance moved

Given W= work done

and mass = m

and vertical height= H

and gravitational force= g

W= mgh
