- the work done and
- power spent.

उत्तर
Force = weight of body = 350 N
Total distance = h = 30 × 20 = 600 cm
h = `600/100 = 6m`
(i) Work done W = F × h
W = 350 × 6 = 2100 J
(ii) Power spent = `"Work done"/"Time taken" = (30 × "Mg" × "h")/(1 " minute")`
= `((30 × 350 ×20)/100)/(1 " minute")`
= `(2100 J)/(1 " minute")`
= `(2100 J)/(60 " Sec")`
Power spent = 35
