Further explanation
Potential energy : energy obtained due to height or position (the force of gravity)
PE = mhg
g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
h = height
(m)
m = mass (kg)
1. Known
m = 0.5 kg
h = 1 m
g = 9.8 m/s²
then :
[tex]\tt PE=0.5\times 1\times 9.8=4.9~J[/tex]
Kinetic energy is the energy gained by an object's motion
KE = 1/2 mv²
2. To find KE, the required data are the mass and velocity
in this table, you do not display the velocity
