Answer:

120J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the body = 0.6kg

Speed  = 20m/s

Unknown:

Potential energy at maximum height  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy at maximum height is equal to the kinetic energy that the body has gained.

 Kinetic energy  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] mv²

 Kinetic energy  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  x 0.6 x 20²  = 120J

At the maximum height, the potential energy will be 120J
