While a person lifts a book of mass 2 kg from the floor to a tabletop, 1.5 m above the floor, how much work does the the person do on the book? how much work does gravity do on the boo

29.4 J  -29.4 J

Explanation:

The work done by the person on the book is given by =mgh

where m =mass

          g= acceleration due to gravity

          h=height

Here m=2 kg given g=9.8 kg m/ h=1.5 meter

So work done by the person =2×9.8×1.5=29.4 J

As the gravitational force work downward and person lift the book upward so work done by gravity = -mgh = -2×9.8×1.5=  -29.4 J
