Use the formula PE = mgh (potential energy = mass x gravity x height). Use 9.8 (which you might round to 10), for gravity.

What is the gravitational potential energy with respect to the surface of the water of a 75.0 kilogram diver located 3.00 meters above the water?
Gravitational potential energy = m*g*h = 75*9.8*3 = 2205 Newtons.
What is potentian energy?
Potential energy is the energy of a system or of a body with respect to the arrangement of the particles of the system or position of the body.
What height would a car have the most potential energy?
The higher it is located, the more potential energy it has.
Why potential energy varies with respect to height?
That's how potential energy is defined in the first place. Also, an object at a greater height does indeed have energy, that can be converted into other types of energy, e.g. movement.
What type of energy is located a the top of an waterfall?
Gravitational potential energy.
Can objects have potential and kinetic energy at the same time?
a body cannot have both kinetic and potential energy at the same time because, a moving body can only possess kinetic energy at a time, but potential energy is one possessed by a body with respect to its possition.
How do the different forms of potential energy depend on an objects position?
Potential energy of a body with certain mass is proportional to the vertical position of the body with respect to the ground. Potential energy of the string is proportional to second degree of displacement from the point of equilibrium.
The deferent between potentel enery and kinetic energy?
Potential energy is defined as the energy of a system or body with respect to the position of the particles of the system or the body. Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a system or body with respect to the motion of the particles of the system or body.
When did the potential energy of the ball begin to change to kinetic energy?
when the position of the BALL is changed WITH RESPECT TO HEIGHT then P.E change in to K.E
What is the gravitational potential energy of a 2 kg book on a shelf 2 m high?
Just calculate the potential energy in both cases, then subtract! The formula for gravitational potential energy is PE = mgh (mass x gravity x height). In SI units, gravity is approximately 9.8.
A 20 kg mass is held above the ground What is the approximate potential energy of the mass with respect to the ground?
The potential energy, expressed in joules, is 196 times its height above ground, expressed in meters.
Where would the most potential energy be located on a roller coaster?
At the peak.
