Question 5

A student of mass 52 kg climbs a staircase of height 3.5 m. Calculate the gain in gravitational potential energy of the student. Use the equation:

potential energy=mass×height×gravitational field strength \text{potential energy} = \text{mass} \times \text{height} \times \text{gravitational field strength} potential energy=mass×height×gravitational field strength

Given that the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg.
