What is the gravitational potential energy of a 3.0-kg rock that is 12.4 m above the ground?

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

explanation:

-reverse card

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
