A carpenter lifts a 10kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5m above the ground. The then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0m above the ground and makes his deliver going 10m/s.

Wood’s potential energy on shoulder? 147JWood’s potential energy on truck? 98JWood’s kinetic energy during delivery? 500JIf wood drops from shoulder, what is maximum kinetic energy? 147J

A carpenter lifts a 10kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5m above the ground. The then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0m above the ground and makes his deliver going 10m/s.

Potential energy on shoulder?GPE=mass X 9.8m/s² X height =10kg X 9.8m/s² X 1.5m= 147J

A carpenter lifts a 10kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5m above the ground. The then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0m above the ground and makes his deliver going 10m/s.

Potential energy on truck?GPE=mass X 9.8m/s² X height =10kg X 9.8m/s² X height= 98J

A carpenter lifts a 10kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5m above the ground. The then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0m above the ground and makes his deliver going 10m/s.

Kinetic energy on delivery?KE = ½ mass X velocity²= ½ X 10kg X (10m/s²)=500J

A carpenter lifts a 10kg piece of wood to his shoulder 1.5m above the ground. The then sets the wood on his truck at 1.0m above the ground and makes his deliver going 10m/s.Drops from carpenter’s shoulders?The maximum kinetic energy would equal the wood’s gravitational potential energy on the carpenter’s shoulder (Law of conservation of energy)
