derric climbs onto his roof to hang Christmas light. If the roof is 4.3 meters from the ground and derrick gains 2730 J of potential energy while climbing, what is his mass​

Respuesta :

Mass of Derrick at a height 4.3 m having 2730 joule of energy is 65 Kg.

What is the expression of gravitational potential energy near the earth surface?

  • Mathematically, gravitational potential energy near the earth surface= m×g×h
  • m= mass of Derrick, g= acceleration due to gravity, h= height at which Derrick present
  • Then, mass (m) of Derrick = potential energy/ (g×h)

What is the mass of Derrick, if he gains 2730 joule of energy at 4.3m above the ground?

Mass of Derrick= 2730/(9.8×4.3)

= 65 kg

Thus, we can conclude that the mass of Derrick is 65 Kg.
