A bucket that has a mass of 10 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall
building. You have a rope that has a mass of 0.2 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of
rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 5 kg because
there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top
of the building.
Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.

A uniform silver sphere and a uniform gold sphere have the same mass. What is the ratio of the radius of the silver sphere to the radius of the gold sphere?
A bucket that has a mass of 25 kg when filled with sand need
to be lifted to the top of a 10 meter tall building. You have a
rope that has a mass of 0.4 kg/m that must be secured to the
bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the
bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 14 kg
because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking
out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the
building.
Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the
top of the building.
