24. If you lift two loads of equal weight up one story, how much work do you do compared to lifting just one
load up one story?
A) Four times as much 8) One quarter as much C) Twice as much 0) One half as much E) The same
amount
This depends on the interpretation.
If you say you carry two loads up one flight vs. carrying
two loads at once up the stairs, the answer is E. W=Fd cos 8.
the
Another way students interpreted the question that each load was the same weight. If each load
is the same weight, taking two loads is double the force. In this case, two loads would be twice
the work. The answer would be C.
