Question

500 in KG water is stored in the overhead tank of a 10 M high building calculate the amount of potential energy stored in the water

Answer 1

Answer:

p.e=mgh

p.e=10×9.8×500

p.e=49000J

Answer 2

Potential energy stored is 50,000 Joules.

Given - Mass and height

Find - Potential energy

Solution - The potential energy stored in the water is - m*g*h. Taking value of g = 10 ms².

Potential energy = 500*10*10

Performing multiplication

Potential energy = 50,000 Joules

Hence, the potential energy stored in water is 50,000 Joules.
