Work Done Against Gravity When Lifting

Medium Physics Work And Energy

A healthcare professional is studying the biomechanics of lifting a weight. When lifting a 5 kg weight vertically with a constant speed to a height of 2 meters, they want to determine the work done against gravity. Assume gravitational acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s². The healthcare professional is interested in understanding how work and energy relate to this scenario.
