Answer:
potential energy=mgh
=50×10×20
=10000 J
Answer:
Explanation:
Given Data:
Mass = m = 50 kg
Height = h = 20 m
Acceleration due to gravity = g = 10 m/s²
Required:
Potential Energy = P.E. = ?
Formula:
P.E. = mgh
Solution:
P.E. = (50)(20)(10)
P.E. = 10,000 Joules
P.E. = 10 * 10³ Joules (10³ = Kilo)
P.E. = 10 kJ
Hope this helped!
