#W=815,56416# #"joule"#

Explanation:

enter image source here
#m=12 kg#
#g=9,81 N/(kg)#
#"change value" pi/3 "to degree"#
#theta =(180/cancel(pi)).(cancel(pi)/3)#
#theta=60^o#
#cos60^o=0,866#
#h=8*0,866=6,928 meters#
#"it gains Potantial Energy when object raises to the point of B"#
#E_p=m*g*h#
#E_p=12*9,81*6,928#
#E_p=815,56416# #"joule"#
#E_p="work doing between the point A and B"#
#W=815,56416# #"joule"#
