A post driver has a mass of 10kg. Calculate the change in GPE stored when the post driver is lifted by 50cm above the post. The gravitational field strength on earth is 10N/kg.


Sagot :

Answer:

500kJ

Explanation:

Common equation;

GPE = mgh

m = mass - in kg

g = gravitational field strength - in N/kg

h = height lifted/lowered - in meters

GPE = 10kg × 10N/kg × 5000m

GPE = 500000Nm

GPE = 500000J

GPE = 500kJ
