Answer:
P = 5292 kJ
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of a person, m = 120 kg
The height of the plane, h = 4500 m
The Gravitational Potential Energy of the person is given by :
P = mgh
Put all the values,
P = 120 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 4500 m
= 5292000 J
or
= 5292 kJ
So, the required gravitational potential energy is 5292 kJ.
