Answer:
Gravitational potential energy stored is 9.8 J.
Given:
G = 9.8
height = 0.5 m
mass = 2 kg
To find:
Gravitation Potential energy stored = ?
Formula used:
Potential energy = mGh
m = mass
G = acceleration due to gravity
h = height
Solution:
Potential energy of the object is given by,
Potential energy = mGh
m = mass
G = acceleration due to gravity
h = height
Potential energy = 2 × 9.8 × 0.5
Potential energy = 9.8 Joule
Gravitational potential energy stored is 9.8 J.
