Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the work done in raising a stone of mass 5 kg and specific gravity 3 through a height of 4 meters, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Specific Gravity Specific gravity (SG) is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. Given that the specific gravity of the stone is 3, we can express the relationship as: \[ \text{Specific Gravity} = \frac{\text{Density of stone}}{\text{Density of water}} = 3 \] ...
