Supposing the carousel is rotating with constant speed, the movement is uniform angular motion.
Answer: 3.92 N.
Explanation:
Your box weighs 400g, or 0.4kg. In order to lift it, you need to overcome the force of gravity. F = ma, and acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s^2. So gravity acts on the box with a force of 0.4 kg * -9.8 m/s^2 = -3.92 N. A force of +3.92 N is required to overcome this.
Answer:

angle at which the rope is supported = 30°
vertical component of force = ?
Answer:
(a) work required to lift the object is 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is 1029 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 35 kg
height through which the object was lifted, h = 3 m
(a) work required to lift the object
W = F x d
W = (mg) x h
W = 35 x 9.8 x 3
W = 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is calculated as;
ΔP.E = Pf - Pi
where;
Pi is the initial gravitational potential energy, at initial height (hi = 0)
ΔP.E = (35 x 9.8 x 3) - (35 x 9.8 x 0)
ΔP.E = 1029 J
