Question

Calculate the Potential Energy of a boulder with a mass of 110 kg while sitting on a cliff that is 54 m high.

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{\sf PE = 58,212 J}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass = m = 110 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s²

Height = h = 54 m

Required:

Potential Energy = PE = ?

Formula:

PE = mgh

Solution:

PE = (110)(9.8)(54)

PE = 58,212 J
