Answer:
The answer is not 9.9 i used that and got it wrong
Explanation:
Answer:
2450 joules
Explanation:
The formula for potential energy is PE = m x g x h
m is the mass, in kg (50)
g is the acceleration due to gravity, in meters per second squared (9.8)
h is the height, in meters (5)
The problem gives m = 50, g = 9.8, and h = 5. Plug that into the formula and get the answer.
[tex]PE = mgh\\PE = (50) (9.8) (5)\\PE = 2450[/tex]
