Question

What is the potential energy of 150 kg diver standing on a diving board that is 10 m High the potential energy is ____ J

Answer 1

Hey! In order to find the potential energy, we need to use the potential energy formula.

PE = mgh

Since we have all of our information, we can basically sub that into the equation to find the potential.

PE = (150)(9.8)(10)
PE = 14700N

Therefore, the potential energy is 14700N.
