Show that the gravitational potential energy of a 1000-kg

Chapter , Problem 35PAC

(choose chapter or problem)

Show that the gravitational potential energy of a \(1000-kg\) boulder raised \(5 \ m\) above ground level is \(50,000 \ J\). (You can express \(g\) in units of \(N/kg\) because \(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\) is equivalent to \(N/kg\).)
