To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Work Done by Both Persons The work done (W) in climbing a height (h) is given by the formula: \[ W = mgh \] where: - \( m \) = mass of the person - \( g \) = acceleration due to gravity (approximately \( 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)) ...
