An object of mass 20 kg is raised vertically through a distance of 8.0 m above ground level. Using g=10 m/s^2 what is the potential energy of this object at this position? A.)160 Nn B.)1600 Nm C.)160 N/m D.)1600 N/m
the formula for finding potential energy is: f= mgh. where "m" is mass of the object in question. "g" is the gravitational acceleration."h" is height above the ground. So, if we put in the values: \(20*10*8\) \(1600\) joules
