A crane raises a crate with a mass of 75 kg to a height of 10 m. Given that the
acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2, what is the crate's potential energy at
this point?
A. 720 J
B. 36,750 J
C. 7,350 J
D. 77 J

Answer :

Answer: C. 7,350 J

Explanation:

Just did it in Apex

The crate's potential energy at this point will be 7,350 J.Option C is correct.

What is the potential of the potential energy?

The potential energy is the energy by the virtue of the position in the system. It varies with the height of the system. The potential energy unit is the joule (j).

The given data in the problem is;

m is the mass of the crate= 75 kg

h is the height = 10 m.

a is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

P is the potential energy of the crate to be found as;

[tex]\rm PE = mgh \\\\ \rm PE =75 \times 9.81 \times 10 \\\\ PE=7350 \ J[/tex]

The potential energy at this point will be 7,350 J.

Hence option C is correct.
