To find the work done in lifting a body of mass \(20 \, \text{kg}\) and specific gravity \(3.2\) to a height of \(8 \, \text{m}\) in water, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Specific Gravity Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. The specific gravity of the body is given as \(3.2\), which means: \[ \text{Density of the body} = 3.2 \times \text{Density of water} \] Since the density of water is approximately \(1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3\), we can calculate the density of the body: ...
