The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.
Gravitational potential energy stored in an object is the work done in raising the object to a height <em>h</em> against the gravitational force acting on it.
The gravitational force acting on a body is its weight mg, where m is its mass and g, the acceleration due to gravity.
Work done by a force is equal to the product of the force and the displacement made by the point of application of the force.
The weight of the object is given as 20 J and it is raised to a height of 5 m.
The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.
Answer:
Vf = 29.4 m/s
h = 44.1 m
Explanation:
Data:
- Initial Velocity (Vo) = 0 m/s
- Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Time (t) = 3 s
- Final Velocity (Vf) = ?
- Height (h) = ?
==================================================================
Final Velocity
Use formula:
- Vf = g * t
Replace:
- Vf = 9.8 m/s² * 3s
Multiply:
- Vf = 29.4 m/s
==================================================================
Height
Use formula:
Replace:
Multiply time squared:
Simplify the s², and multiply in the numerator:
It divides:
