Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Given Values

We are given:

  • The force exerted (weight of the lawn mower), \( F = 200 \, \text{N} \)
  • The height the lawn mower is lifted, \( h = 1.1 \, \text{m} \)
Step 2: Understand the Work Formula

The work done \( W \) is calculated using the formula: \[ W = F \cdot d \] where \( F \) is the force and \( d \) is the distance (height in this case).

Step 3: Calculate the Work Done

Substitute the given values into the formula: \[ W = 200 \, \text{N} \times 1.1 \, \text{m} \] \[ W = 220 \, \text{J} \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{220 \, \text{J}}\)

The answer is c 220 J.
