The Burj Khalifa in Dubai is the world's tallest building. The structure is 828 m (2,716.5 feet) and has more than 160 stories.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

 h = 599.5 m

Explanation:

Given,

height of structure = 828 m

weight of the tourist = 184 lb

                                 = 184 x 0.45359 = 83.43 Kg

Potential energy = 187000 J

PE = m gd

d = \frac{PE}{mg}

d = \frac{187000}{83.43\times 9.81}

h = 228.5 m

Height of the room above the ground.

 h = 828 - 228.5

 h = 599.5 m

Height of the floor above ground is equal to 599.5 m.
