Problem

A 4 kg4\,\text{kg} box is lifted slowly from a height of 1.2 m1.2\,\text{m} to 3.5 m3.5\,\text{m}. Take g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}. The work done by gravity during this lift is closest to (a) +9.0×101 J+9.0\times10^{1}\,\text{J} (b) −1.4×102 J-1.4\times10^{2}\,\text{J} (c) −9.0×101 J-9.0\times10^{1}\,\text{J} (d) −4.5×101 J-4.5\times10^{1}\,\text{J}
