A 10-kg box is suspended 5m above the floor. What is its gravitational potential energy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

590 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 10 × 9.8 × 5 = 590

We have the final answer as

590 J

Hope this helps you
