A bag of wheat weighs 200kg. To what height should it be raised so that its potential energy is 9800 joule (g=9.8ms2) :

Open in App
Solution

Potential energy =m×g×h (here m=200kg, g=9.8ms2, potential energy =9800 joule)
9800J=200Kg×9.8ms2×h
h=9800200×9.8
h=5m
Thus, the bag of wheat should be raised to a height of 5m.
