A stick of mass m and length / is pivoted at one end and is displaced through an angle 0.
The increase in potential energy is?

Explanation:

✪ According to the given data :-

 ⠀⠀⠀→ cosθ = ᵇ/ₕ

 ⠀⠀⠀→ cosθ = ᴬᴮ/l

 ⠀⠀⠀→ AB = l cosθ

❂ For Height :-

 ⠀⠀⠀→ h = l - l cosθ

 ⠀⠀⠀→ h = l (1-cosθ)

☯ As we know that

 ⠀⠀⠀→ Potential Energy = mgh

 ⠀⠀⠀→ Potential Energy = mg × l (1-cosθ)

 ⠀⠀⠀→ Potential Energy = mgl (1-cosθ)

he kicked it 10 feet straight up into the air? i think this works.

the answer would be a
