How much potential work can a 20 KG block do at a height of 10 m?
Potential work = gravitational potential energy = mass x gravity x height = 20 x 9.8 x 10 = 1960 J or 1.96 kJ
How much work is done when lifting a 10 kg mass up a distance of 20 m?
Use the formula for potential energy: PE = mgh (mass x gravity x height). Since you are using SI units, use 9.8 for gravity.
The height of a projectile in motion is dependent on what?
Projectile motion is a form of motion wherein an object moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only. The height of a projectile in motion is dependent on gravity.
What equation can you use to calculate gravitational potential energy?
Potential energy = mgh, or mass x gravity x height.Potential energy = mgh, or mass x gravity x height.Potential energy = mgh, or mass x gravity x height.Potential energy = mgh, or mass x gravity x height.
What factors affect the amount of gravitational potential energy?
Mass, gravity, height.
How much work is done by gravity as the riders are lifted to a height of 60 meters?
Gravity does not lift. The force is doing the work by lifting the riders. When the riders come down from the 60 meter height, then gravity will be at work.
How do I work out a vertical height when it gives me kg and kJ of Ep and Gravity?
Ep (joules) = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height So: height = Ep / (mass * acceleration due to gravity)
How much work has done to lift a 1000 kg block?
That depends how high you lift it.The work is mgh (mass x gravity x height). If the mass is in kilograms, gravity is in newton/kilogram (Earth gravity is about 9.8 newton/kilogram), and the height is in meters, then the work will be in joules.
How can the gravitational potential energy of an object be changed?
Gravitational potential energy is equal to mass x gravity x height. Changing either the mass or the height will work.Gravitational potential energy is equal to mass x gravity x height. Changing either the mass or the height will work.Gravitational potential energy is equal to mass x gravity x height. Changing either the mass or the height will work.Gravitational potential energy is equal to mass x gravity x height. Changing either the mass or the height will work.
When you throw a substance in air at what height there in no gravity at what height there is least gravity and at what height there is normal gravity?
The farther it is from Earth, the less gravity will there be. Gravity will never completely disappear.
When is work said to be done against the force of gravity?
All bodies with mass are attracted to the Earth by gravity, so when a body is raised you must do work to raise it. This work is equal to force x height, if force is in Newtons and height in meters, the work is in units of Joules.
How does gravity affect a person's height or stature?
Does gravity affect a person's height and why?
What is the effect of increasing the height of the track on the acceleration of the object?
The effect of increasing the height of the track on the acceleration of the object is that more work is required to accelerate. It increases the gravity.
does gravity increases or decreases with height?
It decreases with height.
How do you calculate the work done if a boy lifts a body of 50kg to a height of 20m?
work done = m*g*h = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height change. work done = 50 * 9.8 * 20 work done = 9 800 joules
How high does a person have to be to so that the gravity of the earth and moon are equal?
It doesn't work that way. There is no height at which you magically become weightless.
What does gravitational potential energy depend on of the object?
Mass, Height, and Gravity Gravitational Potential Energy= Mass * gravity * height
