Question

9.13. Find the gravitational potential
eneegy of a body of mass 10 kg
when it is at a height of 6400 km​

Answer 1

Answer:

gravitational potential energy =6.4*10^8 J

explanation:

given that, mass =10 kg and

height = 6400km, gravity =10m/s

we know that , gravitational potential energy of a freely falling body =mass * gravity *height

so,

U=mgh

U=10*6400000*10

U=640000000

U=6.4*10^8 J

I hope my answer will help you ...
