Question

Find the potential energy of a body if a body of mass 10 kg is falling from a height of 10 m.

  1. 900J
  2. 950J
  3. 980J
  4. 1000J

hintHint:

Potential energy= mass x gravitational acceleration x height.

The correct answer is: 980J


    Given,
    mass of the object = 10 Kg
    Height from which the object is falling = 10 m
    According to the formula,
    Potential energy= mass x gravitational acceleration x height.
    PE = 10 x 9.8 x 10  ( gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s2)
    PE = 980J
