While competing in the long jump, a person leaps over a smooth horizontal sand surface. She lands on the surface with speed vf = 8.75 m/s at an angle θ = 31.5° below horizontal. Assume that the person moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at her final position. The positive x-axis is directed from her initial to her final position, and the positive y-axis is directed vertically upwards.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

dec 23, 2016 - a load of bricks weighing 680 n a distance of 10 m across a parking lot. if if the worker pushes the cart with a constant force of 209 n, what work= force x distance = 220 n x 10 m = 2200 n.m = 2200 j i don't know where the person got it from, but the initial part, work= force x distance me.
