AI Generated Solution

To calculate the total work done by the man carrying the suitcase, we can break down the problem into two parts: the work done while traveling horizontally and the work done while climbing vertically. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Forces and Displacements**: - The man applies a force of \( F = 20 \, \text{N} \) upward to hold the suitcase. - He travels a horizontal distance of \( d_1 = 10 \, \text{m} \). - He climbs a vertical distance of \( d_2 = 5 \, \text{m} \). ...
