The potential energy of an object is jointly related with the mass of the object and the height of the object. A 40-kg object is 2

meters off the ground. The potential energy of the object is 784 joules. A 10-kg object is 3 meters off the ground. What is the
potential energy of the 10-kg object?

Answer:

294 Joules.

Explanation:

For this all you have to do is use the equation for PE or Potential Energy. Which is given by ... PE = mgh.

m = the mass in kg

g = the accerlation due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2)

h = the height of the object in meters.

so... 10 kg (9.8)(3m) = 294 J
