PEg = Mass x Height x Gravity. So it doesn't matter how much PEg she started with, since you're finding how much it changed when she walked down 2.5 meters of stairs. So by plugging into the equation, you'll find how much potential energy was lost by walking down. (I'll leave it up to you since idk if you use 10 or 9.8 as gravity)

To find gravitational potential energy you need to multiply weight * height. The weight in this situation would be 380-N. Our height is 2.5 m. 380 *2.5= 950, or 950 J of gravitational potential energy.

A 1000-kg car moving at 10 m/s brakes to a stop in 5 s. the average braking force is
Marina86 [1]
To calcculate the braking force of the car moving, we use Newton's second law of motion which relates the acceleration and the force of an object moving. The force of an object moving is directly proportional to its acceleration and the proportionality constant is the mass of the object. It is expressed as:

Force = ma

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving object. We calculate acceleration from the velocity and the time given above.

a = (10 m/s) / 5 s = 2 m/s^2

So,
Force = ma
Force = 1000 kg ( 2 m/s^2 )
Force = 2000 kg m/s^2 or 2000 N
