I need help with this problem and an explanation for the solution described below. (University Physics 1: Application of Newton's laws, Work & Kinetic Energy, Potential Energy & Conservation of Energy) Compute the work done against gravity by a pump that discharges 492 kg of fuel oil into a tank20 m above the pump's intake.A 2.0-kg mass falls 400 cm. (a) How much work was done on it by the gravitational force?(b) How much PEG did it lose?

if doubt arises please mention in the comments.

A block of mass 7.50 kg is being pulled along a level surface as shown, by a force directed at 30.0 degrees above horizontal. The pulling force has a magnitude of 68.0 N. Ignore the friction for now. If the total work done by the pulling force is 255 J, then how far has the block traveled? Hints on solving strategy: Remember from Flipping Physics that work is measured in Joules (J). You'll need to use the formula Mr. P gives for calculating the work done by a force over a given displacement.
A different robot begins pushing a 10kg box that was already moving at 0.5m/s [Right] along a surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.15. The robot pushes with only 3N [Right] of force. What is the acceleration of the box? Using the Work-Energy theorem, calculate how much work the robot does on the box accelerating it from 0.5m/s [Right] to 2m/s [Right]. What distance did the robot push the box? Use kinematics to check your work.
Q14. A 2 kg mass is projected down a rough circular track (R = 2m) as shown. The speed of the mass at point A is 4 m/s, and at point B, it is 6 m/s. How much work is done on the mass between A and B by the force of friction?
A horse pulls a plow a distance of 11 m along the ground from (0, 0) to (11, 0), during which a force of 735 N is applied at an angle of 10° with respect to the ground. What is the work done by the horse? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer as a whole or exact number.) Whorse 7936 Incorrect During this motion, the force of friction is also acting on the plow. Friction is directed parallel to the surface and opposes the motion. If the friction has a magnitude of 635 N, what is the work done by the friction on the plow? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer as a whole or exact number.) Wfriction = 6985 J J

A hiker of mass 73 kg is going to climb to the top of Mount Tam, which has an elevation of 2,574 ft. a) If the hiker starts climbing at an elevation of 545 ft, what will their change in gravitational potential energy be, in joules, once they reach the top? Assume the zero of gravitational potential energy is at sea level. b) Repeat the above calculation for the change in gravitational potential energy, but assume the gravitational potential is zero at the top of the mountain.

samuel has is observing an object. you please determine the work that is done by F = 5i -2j+0k which is a force that is constant in moving samuel's object in a plane . samuel tells you that the object moves due to the force in a straight line in the plane. the straight line connects the points A(1,2) and the point B(3,7). I already know that the correct answer to this question is zero. but the question I have is WHY is it zero. explain why the work is zero in this senario. Not how you get to the answer zero, but why the answer zero can make sense in this scenario. is the forece perpendicualr to the direction? i am confused please help and i will like.
