Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A 10 kg rock is lifted to a height of 20 m on a hill. Calculate its potential energy. Next, what would its potential energy be if raised to only 10 m?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the formula and ensure to change the height value accordingly.

Question 2

A car is lifted to a height of 1.5 m and weighs 1200 kg. Calculate its potential energy, and if it rolls down, what is the energy converted to kinetic energy?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember, when kinetic energy is gained, potential energy is lost.
