A 99 kg box has reached the bottom of a 61 meter tall ramp with 585 J of Kinetic Energy. What is the remaining Potential Energy?

Total Energy = PE + KE

Total energy at the top = m g h = 99 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 61 m = 59,182 J.

Remaining potential energy = Total − KE = 59,182 J − 585 J = 58,597 J ≈ 5.86 × 10^4 J.
