Question

500 kg water is stored in the overhead tank of a 10m high building. Calculate the amount
of potential energy stored in the water.​

Answer 1

POTENTIAL ENERGY = MGH = 500 × 10 ×10 = 50000 J = 50 kj

Answer 2

Explanation:

potential energy = mgh

so using this formula m=500kg g=9.8mps h=10m

so PE =500×10×9.8=49000
