Answer:

m=10kg  h=2m  Ep=mgh  Ep=(10kg)(9.8 m/sec2)(2m)

Ep=196J

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy depends on the force acting on the two objects. For the gravitational force the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m / s2 at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters.

The potential energy of the object is equal to 196 Joules.

Given the following data:

  • Mass = 10 kg
  • Height = 2 meters

Scientific data:

  • Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

To determine the potential energy of the object:

Potential energy (P.E) can be defined as a type of energy possessed by an object (body) due to its position (height) above the Earth.

Mathematically, potential energy (P.E) is given by this formula:

[tex]P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where:

  • m is the mass of object.
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity.
  • h is the height of an object.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]P.E = 10 \times 9.8 \times 2[/tex]

P.E = 196 Joules.
