Can someone help me with b, d and e? Please need this today

Explanation:

a) the free body diagram of the lower pulley would have two force vectors of equal magnitude acting upward and the block weight acting downward. These must balance so 2F = Wt

                                          F = 262/2 = 131 N

b) as the force needed is half of the block weight, the mechanical advantage is 262 / 131 = 2

c) with a mechanical advantage of 2, he would have to pull twice the distance of block motion or 2(3.00) = 6.00 m

d) W = Fd = 131 N(6.00 m) = 786 J

which is the same as the increase in potential energy of the block

e) W = mgh = 262(3.00) = 786 J

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
