    Answer:

    14523.55J

    Explanation:

    The work done by the jogger against gravity is given by the following equation;

    W=mgh.................(1)

    where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s^2 and h is the height of the hill.

    Since the length of the hill is 132m and it is inclined at 12 degrees to the horizontal, the height is thus given as follows;

    h=132sin12^o\\h=27.44m

    Substituting this into equation (1) with all other necessary parameters, we obtain the following;

    W=54*9.8*27.44\\W=14523.55J
