Acrow drops a 0.11kg clam onto a rocky beach from a height of 9.8m. what is the kinetic energy of the clam when it is 5.0m above the ground? what is its speed at that point?

Consider lifting a box of mass m to a height h using two different methods: lifting the box directly or lifting the box using a pulley (as in the previous part). what is wd/wp, the ratio of the work done lifting the box directly to the work done lifting the box with a pulley?
