Answer:

h = 100 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The weight of a stone, W = 1 N

It falls downwards. Its gravitational potential energy decreases by 100 J.

We need to find how far it is fallen.

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by :

E = mgh

h is from where it has fallen

[tex]h=\dfrac{E}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{100}{1}\\\\h=100\ m[/tex]

So, it has fallen 100 m.
