I only need help with D and E, but if the whole problem gets solved that is fine.
Please solve both a and b part...
A painter weighing 120 pounds is hoisted by means of a rope windlass from the ground to a window
on the tenth story of a hotel, 80 feet above ground level.
(a) If the weight of the entire rope is considered to be negligible, then find the work W required to
lift the person the 80 feet above ground level.
(b) Assume that instead of a rope, a substantial chain weighing 2 pounds per foot is used in the
windlass. Find the work W1 required to lift the person the 80 feet from ground level. (Hint:
Note that as the person is lifted, the length of the chain that must be lifted decreases.)
