Question

Calculate the gravitational potential energy of an object with 100 kg as mass, colocated to 40 m of height. (g = 10 m/s^2)

Answer 1

Hello!!

For calculate the GPE let's applicate the formula:

$\boxed{GPE = m g h}$

$\textbf{Being:}$

$\sqrt{}$ GPE = Gravitational potential energy = ?

$\sqrt{}$ m = Mass = 100 kg

$\sqrt{}$ g = Gravity = 10 m/s²

$\sqrt{}$ h = Height = 40 m

⇒ $\text{Then let's \textbf{replace it according} we information:}$

$GPE = 100 \ kg * 10 \ m / s ^{2} * 40 \ m$

⇒ $\text{Let's resolve it: }$

$GPE = 40000 \ J$

$\textbf{Result:}\\\text{The gravitational potential energy is \textbf{40 000 Joules}}$
