A cable that weighs 1/2 kg/meter is lifting a load of 150 kg (mass = 150 kg) that is initially at the bottom of a 50-meter shaft. How much work is required to lift the load 1/2 (half) of the way up the shaft? (weight = mass * 9.8)

An initially stationary 15.0 kg crate is pulled via a cable, a distance L = 5.70 m up a frictionless ramp, to a height of 2.5 m where it stops. 1) How much work is done on the crate by the gravitational force? 2) How much work is done on the crate by the tension on the cable?
