Question

A 37 N object is lifted to a height of 3 meters, What is the potential energy of this object?

Answer 1

Potential energy of the object is 111 Joules.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Force of gravity acting on the object, F =W=mg= 37 N, W is its weight

It is lifted to a height of 3 meters, h = 3 m

We need to find the potential energy of this object. It is given by :

`E=m* g* h`

Since, mg = 37 N

So,

`E=37\ N* 3\ m`

E = 111 Joules

So, the potential energy of this object is 111 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
