A student lifts their 5 kg backpack 2 meters off the floor. How much work does the student do on the backpack? 5/2= 2.5 J
5 x 2 = 10 W
5/2 = 2.5 W
5 x 2 = 10 J

Answer is in the photo. I couldn't attach it here, but uploaded it to a file hosting. link below! Good Luck!

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
