A construction crew wants to hoist a heavy beam so that it is standing up straight, perpendicular with the ground. They tie a rope to the beam, secure the base, and pull the rope through a pulley to raise one end of the beam from the ground. When the beam makes an angle of 40° with the ground, the top of the beam is 8 ft above the ground. The construction site has some telephone wires crossing it. The workers are concerned that the beam may hit the wires. When the beam makes an angle of 60° with the ground, the wires are 2 ft above the top of the beam. Will the beam clear the wires on its way to standing up straight? Explain.

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 11.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.80 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.80 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 78.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage
