    Sadly, after giving all the necessary data, you forgot to ask the question.

    Here are some general considerations that jump out when we play with

    that dа ta:

    For the first object:

    The object's weight is (mass) x (gravity) = 2 x 9.8 = 19.6 newtons

    The force needed to lift it at a steady speed is 19.6 newtons.

    The potential energy it gains every time it rises 1 meter is 19.6 joules.

    If it's rising at 2 meters per second, then it's gaining 39.2 joules of

    potential energy per second.

    The machine that's lifting it is providing 39.2 watts of lifting power.

    The object's kinetic energy is 1/2 (mass) (speed) ² = 1/2 (2) (4) = 4 joules.

    For the second object:

    The object's weight is (mass) x (gravity) = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 newtons

    The force needed to lift it at a steady speed is 39.2 newtons.

    The potential energy it gains every time it rises 1 meter is 39.2 joules.

    If it's rising at 3 meters per second, then it's gaining 117.6 joules of

    potential energy per second.

    The machine that's lifting it is providing 117.6 watts of lifting power.

    The object's kinetic energy is 1/2 (mass) (speed) ² = 1/2 (4) (9) = 18 joules.

    If you go back and find out what the question is, there's a good chance that

    you might find the answer here, or something that can lead you to it.
