**14. You lifted the backpack approximately 1.21 meters.**
**15. The boulder weighs 2500 Newtons.**
Solución
**14. Finding the Height**
1. The work done is given by the equation
\[
W = F \times d
\]
where \( W \) is the work, \( F \) is the force, and \( d \) is the displacement (height in this case).
2. To find the height \( d \), rearrange the equation:
\[
d = \frac{W}{F}
\]
3. Substitute the given values (\( W = 170\text{ J} \) and \( F = 140\text{ N} \)):
\[
d = \frac{170\text{ J}}{140\text{ N}} \approx 1.2143\text{ m}
\]
4. Thus, the backpack was lifted approximately \( 1.21\text{ m} \).

**15. Finding the Weight of the Boulder**
1. The work done by the crane is given by the same equation:
\[
W = F \times d
\]
2. To solve for the weight \( F \) of the boulder, rearrange the equation:
\[
F = \frac{W}{d}
\]
3. Substitute the given values (\( W = 62{,}500\text{ J} \) and \( d = 25.0\text{ m} \)):
\[
F = \frac{62{,}500\text{ J}}{25.0\text{ m}} = 2500\text{ N}
\]
4. Therefore, the boulder weighs \( 2500\text{ N} \).

Beyond the Answer
To find out how high you lifted the backpack, you can use the work formula: Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d). Rearranging the formula gives you Distance (d) = Work (W) / Force (F). Plugging in the numbers: 170 J / 140 N = 1.21 m. So, you lifted the backpack approximately 1.21 meters high. To determine the weight of the boulder, you can use the same work formula. Rearranging gives you Force (F) = Work (W) / Distance (d). Here, you have W = 62,500 J and d = 25.0 m. So, F = 62,500 J / 25.0 m = 2,500 N. Therefore, the boulder weighs 2,500 Newtons.
