Early one October, you go to a pumpkin patch to select your Halloween pumpkin. You lift the 3.0 kg pumpkin to a height of 1.3 m , then carry it 50.0 m (on level ground) to the check-out stand. Calculate the work you do on the pumpkin as you lift it from the ground. How much work do you do on the pumpkin as you carry it from the field?

You go for a walk one afternoon down a level street to a park where there is a hill. If the hill is 88 meters above street level and 2.6 km from home , how much work in the physics sense do you do in order to get to the top of the hill? Assume your mass is 65 kg and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s. Give your answer in joules (J).
A shopper in a supermarket pushes a cart with a force of 41 N directed at an angle of 25° below the horizontal. The force is just sufficient to overcome various frictional forces, so the cart moves at constant speed. (a) Find the work done by the shopper as she moves down a 42.0-m length aisle. Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. J (b) What is the net work done on the cart? Why? This answer has not been graded yet. (c) The shopper goes down the next aisle, pushing horizontally and maintaining the same speed as before. If the work done by frictional forces doesn't change, would the shopper's applied force be larger, smaller, or the same? What about the work done on the cart by the shopper? This answer has not been graded yet.
