A 2.80 kg mass is dropped from a height of 4.50 m. find its potential energy(PE) at the moment it is dropped. PLEASE HELP

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer to your question is: PE = 123.6 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 2.80 kg

height = 4.50 m

potential energy = PE = ?

gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

[tex]Ep = mgh[/tex]

Substitution

PE = (2.80)(9.81)(4.50)

PE = 123.6 J

Dimensional analysis

       = [tex]\frac{kg}{1} \frac{m}{s^{2} } \frac{m}{1}[/tex]

       = Newton meter

       = Joule = J
