Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

  • 1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

  • \boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

  • m = 0.3 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = 15 m
  • PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>

Greetings.

How can you determine the amount of work done on an object? (joules, work, power...etc.)
Novay_Z [31]
Work done is equal to force by distance; so you take the force exerted, in newtons, and multiply that by the direction it's moved (from the starting point in a line, not along the path it's taken.)
