A stone weighing 3.25kgs is at the top of the hill 300 meters high.find the possess potential energy of the stone.​

Sagot :

[tex]\tt{\huge{\blue{Explanation:}}}[/tex]

The potential energy of an object is given by

[tex]\boxed{PE = mgh}[/tex]

where:

PE = potential energy

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height

[tex]\tt{\huge{\red{Solution:}}}[/tex]

Solving for the potential energy

PE = mgh

PE = (3.25 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(300 m)

[tex]\boxed{PE = \text{9,555 J}}[/tex]

Therefore, the potential energy of the stone is 9,555 J.
