Question
a toy baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high. the carriage with the baby has a mass of 200 grams. the carriage has energy.
Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position. The formula for gravitational potential energy is \(PE = mgh\), where \(m\) is mass, \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity (\(g = 9.8\ m/s^{2}\)), and \(h\) is height. The baby carriage is at a height (\(h = 21\ m\)) and has mass (\(m=200\ g=0.2\ kg\)). Since it is stationary at a height, it has gravitational potential energy.
