1.

If a body of mass 10 kg is raised to a height of 6 m above the earth, calculate its potential energy.

Answer»

Potential energy of the body = mgh 

Mass of body = 10 kg 

Height above the earth = 6 m 

Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s2 

So, EP = 10 × 10 × 6 = 600 J 

Thus, potential energy of the body is 600 Joules.
