The concept required to solve this problem is associated with potential energy. Recall that potential energy is defined as the product between mass, gravity, and change in height. Mathematically it can be described as
Here,
= Change in height
m = mass of super heroine
g = Acceleration due to gravity
The change in height will be,
The final position of the heroin is below the ground level,
The initial height will be the zero point of our system of reference,
Replacing all this values we have,
Since the final position of the heroine is located below the ground, there will net loss of gravitational potential energy of 10744.81J
