Question

Calculate the potential energy of 6 kg bowling ball suspended 3m above the surface of the earth

Answer 1

GP.E= 6x3x10=180J   HOPE IT HELPS

Answer 2

The potential energy possessed by the bowling ball is 176.4 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 6 kg

It is suspended 3 m above the surface of the earth, h = 3 m

To find,

The potential energy of the stone.

Solution,

When an object is lifted to a height, it possess potential energy. It is given by :

$P=mgh$

$P=6\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 3\ m$

P = 176.4 Joules

So, the energy possessed by a body at any instant is 176.4 Joules.
