Question

What is the potential energy of a 5 kg apple that is sitting on a 1.5 m high
tree branch? GPE=ham

Answer 1

Answer:

PE = 73.58 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of apple = 5 Kg

Height of tree = 1.5 m

Potential energy = ?

Solution:

Formula:

PE = mgh

g = 9.81 m/s

by putting values,

PE = 5 Kg × 9.81 m/s × 1.5 m

PE = 73.58 J (Kgm²/s = J)
