Question

An object of a mass 5 Kg is taken to a height of 10m from the ground (g = 10 ms^-2). Calculate its potential energy _____​

Answer 1

Answer:

m=5kg,h

1 =5m,h

2=10m,g=10ms −2

Increase in potential energy =(final potential energy) − (initial potential energy)

= mg×(h 2−h1)

=5×10×(10−5)=250J

Answer 2

Answer:

500J

Step-by-step explanation:

P.E=mgh

P.E=5×10×10

P.E=500J
