Take acceleration due to gravity as 10 (m/s)/s
potential energy is m*g*h ( mass * acceleration due to gravity * height to travel )
say the brick is to fall 10 metres, then m*g*h = 2*10*10 = 200 joules,
you have to give the ping pong ball a potential fall of 2000 metres to equal the brick.

Gravitational potential energy = Mass x gravity x heightTherefore, an object at ground level is 0 meters above the ground, thus having no potential energy.PE = mghm = massg = gravitational accelerationh = height
The book has a mass of 0.46kg
For gravitational potential energy: PE = weight x height PE = mgh (that is, mass x gravity x height) The first formula is appropriate in this case, since you already know the weight.
It is the product of the mass of the object in Kg, the gravitational acceleration which is 9.81 m/sec2, and the height of the object above earth's surface in meters. Result is in Joules
The ball's potential energy at 0.8 meters is 3.92 joules.
The potential energy of a person standing W meters above the ground can be calculated using the formula: Potential energy = mass x gravity x height, where mass is in kilograms, gravity is approximately 9.8 m/s^2, and height is in meters.
Potential energy is calculated using the formula: potential energy = mass x gravitational acceleration x height. The potential energy represents the energy stored in an object due to its position relative to other objects.
I think we have the same question, Potential Energy = Weight X Height. It weighs 3 Newtons and is 10 meters from the ground. 3*10=30. I am pretty sure the answer is: 30J
The formula for calculating an object's potential energy is: Potential energy = mass x gravity x height, where mass is the object's mass in kilograms, gravity is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth), and height is the vertical distance the object is raised from a reference point.
The height of the mass is 8 meters.
The potential energy of the skater at 12 meters above the ground can be calculated using the formula: Potential energy = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height. Given that the mass is 60 kg, acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2, and the height is 12 meters, the potential energy would be approximately 7,058.4 Joules.
To find the kinetic energy of the object at 2 meters height, we need to consider the conservation of energy. At a height of 2 meters, the object will have potential energy of mgh = 5kg × 9.81m/s^2 × 2m = 98.1 Joules. Since no external work is being done on the object, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Thus, the kinetic energy of the object at 2 meters height will be 98.1 Joules.
The ball has maximum potential energy at its highest point, which is at a height of 15 meters when it is thrown into the air.
The change in Mary's potential energy is given by: Change in potential energy = mgh, where m is Mary's mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the change in height. Potential energy at starting point = mgh1 and at the lower point = mgh2 Change in potential energy = mgh2 - mgh1 = mg(h2 - h1) = 533 N * 9.81 m/s^2 * 4m = 20855.92 J.
The potential energy of the rock can be calculated using the formula: Potential energy = mass * gravity * height. Given the mass of 800 kg, the acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s^2, and the height of 10 meters, you can calculate the potential energy as PE = 800 * 9.81 * 10 = 78,480 J.
Potential Energy = m*g*h where m is the mass in grams, g is the acceleration of gravity in m/s^2, and h is the height in meters. Potential Energy is measured in Joules.
