Given parameters:
Mass of the car = 1000kg
Unknown:
Height = ?
To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.
Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.
It is mathematically expressed as:
P.E = mgh
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
h is the height of the car
Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.
h =
<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>
h = = 0.204m
<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>
h = = 20.4m
<u>For 1.0kJ = 1 x 10³J; </u>
h = = 0.102m
