Homework Statement
Find the work done in winding up a 150 ft cable that weighs 4.00 lb/ft. Assume that the weight includes the gravitational force. In order words exclude the gravitational force g in your calculation.
Homework Equations
W = ∫ pgA(y)D from a ft to b
a = area
P = density
g = gravitational
d= lifting distance
The Attempt at a Solution
The question clearly states that g should be excluded from the equation.
W = ∫A(y) (d) from 150 to zero
But I am not sure of my work.
