Question

An object of mass weighing 5.24 kilograms is raised to a height of 1.63 meters. What is the potential energy of the object at that height? Note that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters/second^2.

Answer 1

When a mass m is raised a vertical height h, the gain in gravitational potential energy is
\[\Delta E _{p}=mgh\]
where m is measured in kg and h in meters.
