Dear Student


Mass = 40 kg
h = 5m
P.E. _ ?[ g = 10 m/ s2]
P.E. = mgh
= 40 × 10 × 5
P.E. = 2000J
When the object falls the potential energy gets transformed into kinetic energy. When the object is half way down
P.E.= will become half
i.e.= 2000
2
= 1000J and P.E.=K.E.
Kinetic Energy = 1000J

Thanks
