A farmer is using a rope and pulley to lift a bucket of water from the bottom of a well. the farmer uses a force f1=57.5 n to pull the bucket of water upwards. the total mass of the bucket of water is f2= 3.9kg.
-Calculate how much work Wg in J gravity does on the bucket filled with water as the farmer lifts it up the well.
-Calculate the net work Wnet in J done on the bucket of water by the two forces F1 and Fg.

the first problem cannot be solve because you did give the distance or length of the rope, because work = distance x force. i can only solve the the second problem. since the bucket is moving up then force due to gravity is going down, then the net force is:
Fnet = F1 - Fg
where Fg = mg
g is the accelaration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s^2)
Fnet = 57.5 N - (3.9 kg)(9.81) N
Fnet = 19.24 N
