Calculate the change in gravitational potential energy when a 1.5Kg box falls from a 2m shelf. Take
g=10N/Kg.

30J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of box  = 1.5kg

Height  = 2m

Acceleration due to gravity  = 10N/kg

Unknown:

Change in gravitational potential energy  = ?

Solution:

 The change in gravitational potential energy is given as:

      ΔGPE  = mgh  

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

   ΔGPE  = 1.5 x 10 x 2  = 30J

the small 0.38-kg slider is known to move from position a to position b along the vertical-plane slot. determine (a) the work done on the body by its weight and (b) the work done on the body by the spring. the distance r = 0.70 m, the spring modulus k = 154 n/m, and the unstretched length of the spring is 0.53 m
