the angle of elevation would be the angle between the horizon and the line of sight to whatever object you are measuring to. Lets say for instance that you see a plane, and you determine that it has an angle of elevation of 30 deg. This means that from the horizon, you would need to look up at an angle of 30 degrees to see that plane. below I linked to a diagram which illustrates it quite well. Hope this helped!

Well Work is the integral of P*dV and since the crank angle plot doesn't directly show volume you need to calculate instaneous volume of the cylinder as a function of crank angle. If you know the bore and stroke you can find the volume of the cylinder and you can relate this to the crank angle. Once you have these values you can replace the crank angle with volume and have a P-V plot or pressure on the y-axis and volume on the x-axis. Then you can integrate the area under the curve and find the work from the engine. However, all this is done for you if you can find the P-V diagram for your engine or engine cycle (Sterling, Atkinson, Otto, Diesel, etc.) and integrate this for the work.
A suspension bridge is supported from a height of 30 feet. The length of the wire used to suspend the bridge, from the ground to the top, is 65 feet. What is the angle of elevation from the base of the bridge to the point of suspension?
Work done is used as a term to communicate that a predetermined task has been completed OR to specifify a percentage of the task completed by saying that work done is at (f.i.) 70%
no
No you still do the same amount of work
