Find Gravitational Potential Energy for m = 43 kg and h = 37 m

Detailed Steps to Calculate PEg for m = 43 kg, h = 37 m

Gravitational potential energy is one type of potential energy and is equal to the product of the object's mass (m), the acceleration caused by gravity (g), and the object's height (h) as distance from the surface of the ground (the body).

The formula to calculate Gravitational potential energy is:

PEg = m x g x h

Where,

PEg = Gravitational Potential Energy

m = Mass of object

g = Gravitational constant ( 9.81 m/s2 )

h = Height of the object as distance from the surface of the ground


Step by Step Solution to find Potential Energy of Mass = 43 kg & Height = 37 m:

Given that,

mass (m) = 43 kg

height (h) = 37 m

gravity (g) = 9.81 m/s2

Substitute the value into the formula

PEg = 43 x 9.81 x 37

PEg = 15607.71 J

∴ Gravitational Potential Energy (PEg) = 15607.71 J
