What is the potential energy of a .5kg ball sitting on a table 1 meter above the ground?

4.9J


Why is the gravitational potential energy of an object 1 meter above the Moon's surface less than its potential energy 1 meter above Earth's surface?

There is less gravity on the Moon. Gravitational potential energy can be calculated by multiplying weight x height, or the equivalent mass x gravity x height.


What is the definition of pontential energy?

Potential energy takes many different definitions, but the most common is due to gravity. Say move a book from the floor to a shelf that is one meter above the ground. The book has a mass of 2 kilograms. While the book is on the floor, it has zero potential energy. Since potential energy is defined as the height times the mass times the gravitational constant, and height is equal to zero at that point, there is no potential energy. But when it is moved to one meter high, the math goes as follows: 1 meter X 2 kilograms X 9.8 meters per second squared(The gravitaional Constant) = 19.6 Joules(The unit of potential energy).


The kinetic energy of the object moving with a velocity of 5 meter per second is 25 joules. What will be the kinetic energy when the velocity is tripled?

The object has a mass of 2kg. When velocity is tripled the kinetic energy becomes 225 joules.


What is the potential energy in joules of a 100 kg mass 10 meters above the ground?

Energy is given in Joules with is a Newton meter. A Newton is a kilogram meter squared per second squared. A 10 kg child has 98.1 Newtons which equals 98.1 Joules.

If you have a 2kg pendulum bob that is 6 meters above the ground at its high point and 1 meter at its low point how can you figure the kinetic energy?

Calculate the potential energy at its highest point. Don't use the 6 meters above the ground - use the 5 meter difference from the lowest point. This part of the potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy, when the pendulum is at its lowest point. Just assume that all the potential energy (for the 5 meters difference) get converted into kinetic energy.Calculate the potential energy at its highest point.

How many joules is 2.04 meters?

Joule is a unit for measuring energy. Meter is a unit for measuring length or distance. There is no conversion. If you wanted to find the potential energy of an object, 2.04 meters off the ground, then you would need to know the mass of the object and the value of g (gravitational acceleration) at the point where you are, then you could calculate energy in Joules.


What is surface temperature?

Surface temperature is the temperature on the outside of the object. For example the surface temperature of the Earth is the Ground temperature and the surface temperature of an orange is the rind not the pips.


How much energy does it take to lift an object weighing one Newton a distance of one meter?

1 newton-meter = 1 joule


What would be the change for a 10 gram object dropped from a 20 meter building if it takes 2 seconds to reach the ground?

There is no reason for the object to change.


Why is the gravitational potential energy of an objects 1 meter above the moons surface less than its potential energy 1 meter above Earths surface?

because the value of gravitational force of earth is greater than that of moon.


How much energy does it take to move one kilogram one meter?

It depends on the acceleration of the object.
