A bucket that has a mass of 25 kg when filled with sand need to be lifted to the top of a 10 meter tall building. You have a rope that has a mass of 0.4 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 14 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building. Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.

Question
A bucket that has a mass of 25 kg when filled with sand need
to be lifted to the top of a 10 meter tall building. You have a
rope that has a mass of 0.4 kg/m that must be secured to the
bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the
bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 14 kg
because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking
out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the
building.
Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the
top of the building.
