A person weighing 750 N climbs up a ladder to a height of 5.55 m. What is
the person's gravitational potential energy at the top of the ladder? *

Answer 1

388.5J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight = 70N

Height = 5.55m

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy at the top of the ladder = ?

Solution:

The gravitational potential energy is the energy due to the position of the body.

Gravitational potential energy = Weight x height

So;

Gravitational potential energy = 70 x 5.55 = 388.5J
