One end of a rope of length 12.0 m is fixed to a tree limb above. A monkey, whose mass is 8.0 kg, holds onto the free end of the rope and swings back and forth. Eventually, he gets the rope to swing enough that he can reach a branch when the rope makes a 60o angle with downward vertical. How much work is done against the force of gravity?
