A 40 kg-skier is standing at the top of a 12-meter high slope. What is her potential energy? PE = m x g x h (g = 10m/s2) A. 6000J B. 48J C. 4800J D. 400J

The correct option is;

C. 4800 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the skier = 40 kg

The height of the slope = 12 meter

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²

The potential energy, PE, is given by the formula PE = Mass, m × Acceleration due to gravity, g × Height, h

Substituting the values, gives

The potential energy, PE = 40 kg × 10 m/s² × 12 m = 4800 kg·m²/s² = 4800 J

The potential energy, PE = 4800 J
