Mechanical(ME) energy, in physical sciences, is the sum of kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE). Below are the calculation in obtaining the energies,
 
     (1) KE =   0.5mv²     =  0.5(0.1 kg) x (2 m/s)² = 0.2 J
     (2) PE =    md          = (0.1 kg) x (1.5 m)        = 0.15 J
      (3) ME =  KE + PE = 0.2 J + 0.15 J               = 0.35 J

Thus, the mechanical energy is 0.35 Joules.

What is the difference between resilience and modulus of resilience
pshichka [43]
<span>Resilience is the amount of energy that can be put into a volume of material and still be stored elastically. ie When the energy goes away, the material regains its undeformed shape. The Mod of R is the amount that can be stored by a unit volume of that material. The Mod of R is heavily related to Youngs Modulus.</span>
