What potential energy does a 60.0-kg gymnast acquire in climbing 5.00 m up a vertical pole?
GIVEN:
mg = 60
h/d = 5.00 m
PE = mgh
PE = (60)(5.00)
PE = 300 J

no. mg=60kg*9.8N/kg

How did you get 9.8 N? Isn't 9.8 m/s^2 the acceleration?

gravitational potential energy = mgh
GPE = mass x gravity x height
GPE = 60 x 9.8 x 5
GPE = 2940
GPE = mass x gravity x height
GPE = 60 x 9.8 x 5
GPE = 2940
