Question 7 • Physical Science

What is the potential energy of a 25 kilograms bicycle resting at the top of a hill 3 m high? (Formula: cap p cap e is equal to mg h )

Answer
A
735 cap j
B
75 cap j
C
37 point 8 cap j
D
245 cap j

Explanation

Gravitational potential energy is calculated with PE = mgh. Using m = 25 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 3 m gives PE = 25 × 9.8 × 3 = 735 J. Therefore, the potential energy is 735 joules, choice A.
