31 Example 1 and 2 have the same answer. Ep = mg h = 5 x 10 x 2 = 100J

32 Example 1 and 2 have the same answer. Ep = mg h = 5 x 10 x 2 = 100J Object is lifted 2m off the floor. Gain in gravitational potential energy = 100J (g = always 10) so 10x10

33 Example 1 and 2 have the same answer. Ep = mg h = 5 x 10 x 2 = 100J Object is lifted 2m off the floor. Gain in gravitational potential energy = 100J (g = always 10) so 10x10 The object has 100J more gravitational potential energy when 2m off the floor

34 Example 1 and 2 have the same answer. Ep = mg h = 5 x 10 x 2 = 100J Object is lifted 2m off the floor. Gain in gravitational potential energy = 100J (g = always 10) so 10x10 The object has 100J more gravitational potential energy when 2m off the floor The object falls 2m. Loss in gravitational potential energy is 100J
