Question

Calculate the man’s mass. (use pe = m × g × h, where g = 9.8 n/kg.) a man climbs a wall that has a height of 8.4 meters and gains a potential energy of 4,620 joules. his mass is about kilograms.

Answer 1

the answer is 56kg all you have to do is round 56.1 to the nearest whole number

Explanation:

i just took the test and got 100%

Answer 2

Potential energy is a stored energy, which is caused by the gravitational pull of the earth, that is why when you go up the potential energy will increase. to calculate the mass, just substitute the given to the formula and solve for m

PE = m x g x h
4620 = m x 9.8 x 8.4
m = 4620 / ( 9.8 x 8.4)
m = 56.1 kg is thr mass of the man
