Answer:
9800 N
Explanation:
applying,
W = Fd……………… Equation 1
Where W = work done by the engine, F = Force exterted to lift the beam, d = distance.
make F the subject of the equation
F = W/d…………… Equation 2
From the question,
Given: W = 1421000 J, d = 145 meters.
Substitute these values into equation 2
F = 1421000/145
F = 9800 N
