A man lifts a 25.9 kg bucket from a well and does 5.92 kJ of work.The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 . How deep is the well? Assume that the speed of the bucket remains constant as it is lifted. Answer in units of m.

Answer:

The well is 23.3 m

Explanation:

As the bucket is lifted out of the well, energy in the man is being transferred to the bucket as gravitational potential energy.

Work done against gravity =  mass * height * acceleration due to to gravity

W  =  mgh

5 920 J = 25.9 kg * h * 9.8 m/s²

h = 23.3 m
