When she starts out, he is (40x2.5)= 100 miles ahead of her.
She gains (65-40)= 25 miles on him every hour.
It takes her (100/25)= 4 hours to catch up to him.
Answer:
4000J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of the man = 800N
Height of ladder = 5m
Unknown:
Gravitational potential energy gained = ?
Solution:
The gravitational potential energy is due to the position of a body.
Gravitational potential energy = weight x height
Now insert the parameters;
Gravitational potential energy = 800 x 5 = 4000J
