Energy problem formulas
Potential Energy = mgh
v = velocity or speed
Kinetic energy = mv²
9 = 9.8 m/s²
m = mass in kg
(Precision of 0.0)
h = height in meters
A baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 26 m high. The
carriage with the baby has a mass of 2.0 kg.
a) Calculate Potential Energy
(Precision of 0.0)
b) How much work was done to the system to create this potential
energy?
