- Answer the following problem with the complete step-by-step process (showing the given, required, process/solution, and graph if possible). 1. The record number of boat lifts, including the boat and its ten crew members, was achieved by Sami Heinonen and Juha Räsänen of Sweden in 2000. They lifted a total mass of 653.2 kg approximately 4 in. off the ground a total of 24 times. Estimate the total work done by the two men on the boat in this record lift, ignoring the negative work done by the men when they lowered the boat back to the ground.arrow_forwardProblem 9: An object of mass 2.00 kg starts at rest from the top of a rough inclined plane of height, h, 20.0 m as shown.

INSTRUCTIONS: Measure the vertical distance from the ground floor to the landing and from the landing to the 1st floor as shown below (convert to feet). Record this value on the data sheet, column B. Note: Your stairs might not have a landing – that’s ok. Just measure the vertical height from the bottom to the top of the stairs. Record your weight (pounds) in column A of the data sheet. Multiply column A and column B. Record this value in column C. Measure the time it takes to walk (at a normal pace) up the stairs from the ground floor to the first floor – use the hand rail for support. Measure 3 times and calculate the average time. Record these values in column D. Measure the time it takes to briskly walk (not run) up the stairs…arrow_forwardA skier goes down a 200 m slope.
