An eagle that has a mass of 4.5 kg is spotted 5 m above a lake. it flies up to its nest in a tree at a height of 25 m. how much gravitational potential energy did the eagle gain? 221 j 882 j 1103 j 1323 j

Respuesta :

882J of gravitational potential energy is gained by the eagle.

Here, we have been provided with data-

mass, m = 4.5 kg

height, h = 25 m

We have to find the gravitational potential energy.

In the question, it is given that the eagle is at a height of 5m and it flies from there 20 m more to reach its nest.

So, gravitational potential energy is given as

P.E = m x g x h

P.E = 4.5 × 9.8 × 20

P.E =  882J

Thus, the correct option is (b).
