Question 35
Easy

A miniature motorized winch system lifts a geological core sample of mass 0.165 kg inside a portable analysis chamber.

During an extraction test, the sample is lifted vertically through a height (Δh\Delta hΔh) of 60.0 cm.

The gravitational field strength, ggg, is 10 N/kg.

Calculate the change in the gravitational potential energy (ΔGPE\Delta \text{GPE}ΔGPE) of the sample.

Use the equation:

ΔGPE=m×g×Δh \Delta \text{GPE} = m \times g \times \Delta h ΔGPE=m×g×Δh
