Answer to Question #158287 in Physics for Charls humphrey bernal

Question

Chou trains his lethal moves in the planes of the small slumdog town of Antoinerei. As he practices, the gravitational potential energy associated with his jump was 1970 J. If Chou's mass was 82 kg. How high did he jump?

Answer 1

Since the potential energy can be found as

$$E=mgh,$$

the height is

$$h=\frac{E}{mg}=\frac{1970}{82\cdot9.8}=2.5\text{ m}.$$
