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)

Explain why only the vertical height of the stairs is measured for work?
Only the vertical height of the stairs is measured for work because it accounts for the change in potential energy associated with lifting oneself to a higher elevation against gravity. The horizontal distance does not significantly affect the amount of work done as it does not require overcoming any vertical displacement.
How does gravity work in the height?
as we go up gravity decreases
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 you work out the gradient on a graph?
vertical height over lengh
When is work said to be done against the force of gravity?
Work is said to be done against the force of gravity when an object is moved vertically upwards, against the force of gravity, over a certain distance. In this case, the force applied must be greater than the force of gravity acting on the object for work to be done against gravity.
A ball of mass 0.25 kg for grown up but it's a height of 10 metres before coming to rest calculate the work done by the force of Gravity during its vertical displacement?
The work done by the force of gravity can be calculated using the formula: work = force x distance. The force of gravity is the weight, which is calculated as mass x gravity. Given that the ball is at rest at the end, the work done by gravity is equal to the gravitational potential energy lost during the descent: work = weight x height. Substituting the values, work = (0.25 kg x 9.81 m/s^2) x 10 m = 24.53 J.
How much work has to be done to give a box 400J?
If the work done to give a box 400J of energy is against gravity, it would be equal to the force required multiplied by the vertical height lifted. This means the work done would depend on the weight of the box and the distance it is lifted.
What is work done by gravity if object thrown at certain angle to ground moved a curved path n falls back to the ground initial and final position of objects path lie on the same horizontal line?
The work done by gravity on the object is zero because the initial and final positions of the object are at the same height, and gravity acts in a vertical direction. The gravitational force only does work when there is a component of the force in the direction of the displacement. Since the vertical displacement is zero, the work done by gravity is zero.
How do l work out the area of an equilateral triangle?
0.5 x base length x vertical height
How much work is done when 1kg is raised a vertical distance of 1 m?
W = mgh m = mass g = gravitational acceleration h = height m = 1 kg g = 9.8 m/S2 h = 1 metre W = 1x 9.8 x 1 = 9.8 N
What type of energy stored due to gravity and height above the ground?
Potential energy is the type of energy stored due to gravity and height above the ground. This energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work when an object is released from that height.
What is the minimum work needed to push a 850 kg car 950 m up along a 8.0 degree incline?
The work done in pushing the car up the incline is equal to the change in potential energy. Use the formula W = mgh, where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, and h = vertical height. Calculate the vertical height the car has been lifted and then determine the work done.
