A paint can is sitting on a ladder 20 m high. It has a mass of 7 kg. What is the
potential energy of the paint can?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 1400 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 20 × 10 × 7

We have the final answer as

1400 J

Hope this helps you
