Question

Earth's gravitational potential energy: GPE = mgh = Gravity (9.81m/s2)

Mass (kg) x Height (m)
Kinetic energy: KE=
- 2 mu?
How would you calculate the gravitational potential energy of a 2 kg bottle of
soda falling off of a kitchen table that is 0.76 m tall?
A.
(2) 0.76)
9.8
O B. 20.76)(2)
O c. 120762)
D. (2)(0.76)9.8

Answer 1

(2)×(9.8)×(0.76)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of bottle = 2 kg

Given height = 0.76 m

Gravitational potential energy of bottle = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh

g = 9.8 m/s²

Now we will put the values in formula.

Gravitational potential energy = 2kg×9.8 m/s²×0.76 m

Gravitational potential energy = 14.896 kg.m².s⁻²

j = kg.m².s⁻²

Gravitational potential energy = 14.896 j
