Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate both the work done by the man and the increase in his potential energy. ### Given: - Mass of the man (m) = 50 kg - Height of the ladder (h) = 10 m - Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s² ### (i) Calculate the Work Done by the Man: ...
