What is the gravitational potential energy of a 0.550-kg projectile flying with 335 m/s, 72 meters above the ground?

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 0.550kg

Speed = 335 m/s

Height = 72 meters

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s²

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

true is the correct answer
