Question

A 6 kilogram cat is resting on top of a bookshelf that is 2 meters high. What is the cat’s gravitational potential energy relative to the floor?

Answer 1

The formula for the potential energy, EP is given by

EP = m × g × h

where:
m is the mass in kilograms
g is the gravity (9.8 m/s²)
h is the height in meters

EP = 6 × 9.8 × 2 = 117.6 kg-m²/s²

Answer 2

Answer:6x9.8m/sx2=117.6
