To calculate the work done when lifting the bowling ball, you can use the work formula:
\[ \text{Work} = \text{Force} \times \text{Distance} \]
In this case, the force exerted is 60 Newtons and the distance lifted is 2 meters.
Calculating the work:
\[ \text{Work} = 60 \, \text{N} \times 2 \, \text{m} = 120 \, \text{J} \]
So the correct answer is **120 joules**.
\[ \text{Work} = \text{Force} \times \text{Distance} \]
In this case, the force exerted is 60 Newtons and the distance lifted is 2 meters.
Calculating the work:
\[ \text{Work} = 60 \, \text{N} \times 2 \, \text{m} = 120 \, \text{J} \]
So the correct answer is **120 joules**.
