GPT 3.5
The potential energy of the diver can be calculated using the formula:
Potential Energy = mass * gravity constant * height
Given:
Mass (m) = 50 kg
Height (h) = 5 meters
Gravity constant (g) = 9.8 m/s^2 (approximate value)
Potential Energy = 50 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5 meters
= 2450 Joules
Therefore, the potential energy of the 50 kg diver on board 5 meters above the water is 2450 Joules.
