Answer:
W = 20 J
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a loaded sack, m = 1000 g = 1 kg
It falls down from the floor of a lorry 200 cm high, h = 2 m
We need to find the work done by the gravity. The work done by an object under the action of gravity is given by :
W = mgh
Substitute all the values,
W = 1 × 10 × 2
= 20 J
Hence, the required work done by gravity is equal to 20 J.
