Answer:

PE ( Potential Energy ) = Mass x Gravity x Height

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one you would do.

.28 ( mass) x 9.8 ( constant of gravity ) x .40m ( height )

So just multiply your Mass, Gravity and Height together and you will get Potential Energy

Gravity is always 9.8 m/s

Answer: To find Potential Energy just multiply the mass to accleration due to gravity which is constant (9.8 m/s²) and height or PE =mgh

.Table 1: height is 0.40m

PE1 = 1.1J

PE2= 1.5J

PE3= 1.9J

Table 2: height is 0.32m

PE1= 0.9J

PE2= 1.2 J

PE3= 1.5J

Table 3: height is 0.42m

PE1= 1.2J

PE2= 1.6 J

PE3= 1.98 J

Step-by-step explanation:
