Note: remember, gpe can be negative if
an object is below the reference point!
a 2.24 kg ball is attached to a ceiling by a
1.14 m long string. the height of the room is
3.46 m. the acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s^2
what is the gravitational potential energy
associated with the ball relative to
a) the ceiling?
b) the floor?
c) a point at the same elevation as the ball?
answer in units of j

Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula:GPE = mghwhere GPE is the gravitational potential energym is the massg is the acceleration due to gravityh is the height
a) the ceiling
GPE = mghGPE = (2.24 kg) ( 9.81 m/s^2) (-1.14 m)GPE = -25.05 J
b) the floorGPE = mghGPE = (2.24 kg) ( 9.81 m/s^2) (3.46 - 1.14 m)GPE = 50.98 J
c) a point at the same elevation as the ballGPE = mghGPE = (2.24 kg) ( 9.81 m/s^2) (0 m)GPE = 0 J

The answer is 12, for the points
