Question

Find the gravitational potential energy of 1 kg mass kept at a height of 5 m above the ground if g = 10 ms s-2

Answer 1

Gravitational potential energy = mass (m) × gravity (g) × height (h)
= (1× 10 × 5) J
= 50 J

Answer 2

Hey there!

Given,

Mass (m) = 1 kg

Height ( h) = 5 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s^2

We know,

P.E = mgh

     = 1 * 10 * 5

     = 50 J
