An aircraft is taking a group of skydivers up into the air. Evan is dressed in
a parachuting outfit, which brings his mass to a total of 90 kg. The aircraft
takes the group to a height of 5,000 m before the jump. How much GPE
does Evan have before he jumps to earth? *​

Respuesta :

4,410 kJ

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Enegry (GPE) is calculated as;

GPE = m*g*h                           where;

m = mass (kg)

g = gravity (m/s²)

h = height (meters)

= 90 * 9.8 * 5000

= 4,410,000‬ joules

= 4,410 kJ
