A snowball that will be used to build a snowman is at the top of a only hill. If the
potential energy of the snowball is 520 J and the mass of the snowball is 2.2 kg,
what is the height of the hill?

Respuesta :

Answer:

h = 24.11 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The potential energy of the snowball is 520 J

The mass of the snowball is 2.2 kg

We need to find the height of the hill. The potential energy of an object is given by the formula as follows :

[tex]E=mgh[/tex]

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is height of the hill

[tex]h=\dfrac{E}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{520}{2.2\times 9.8}\\\\h=24.11\ m[/tex]

So, the height of the hill is 24.11 m.
