Answer : Potential energy of the cat is 117.6 J.
Explanation :
It is given that,
Mass of the cat, m = 4 kg
Height from the ground, h = 3 m
We know that the potential energy of the cat is possessed by the virtue of its height under the action of gravity.
Mathematically, it is given as :
\(PE=mgh\)
\(PE=4\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 3\ m\)
\(PE=117.6\ J\)
Hence, this is the required solution
