प्रश्न
Explain by an example that a body may possess energy even when it is not in motion.
उत्तर
A body can have energy even if it is not in motion. The statement can be justified by:
Water stored in the reservoir at the roof of a building possesses gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground.

A truck driver can load oil drums into the back of the truck by pushing them up a sloping plank, or by lifting them directly. Each drum has a mass of 80 kg, the plank is 3 m long, and the back of the truck is 0.8 m above the ground.
(i) How much force would be needed to lift a drum into the truck directly/without using the plank? (Take g = 10 m/s2)
(ii) How much energy would be required in lifting the drum into the truck without the plank?
(iii) If the force needed to push the drum up the plank is 300 N, why is this less than the answer to part (i)?
