- Work The work W required to lift an object varies jointly with the object’s mass m and the height h that the object is lifted. The work required to lift a 120-kilogram object 1.8 meters is 2116.8 joules. Find the amount of work required to lift a 100-kilogram object 1.5 meters.arrow_forwardRelativistic Length A rocket ship travelling near the speed of light appears to a stationary observer to shorten with speed. A rocket ship with a length of 200 meters will appear to a stationary observer to have a length of 2001-r2 meters, where r is the ratio of the velocity of the ship to the speed of light. What is the apparent length of the rocket ship if it is travelling at a speed that is 99% of the speed of light?arrow_forward
