We are given the gravitational potential energy and the height of the ball and is asked in the problem to determine the mass of the ball. the formula to be followed is PE = mgh where g is the gravitational acceleration equal to 9.81 m/s^2. substituting, 58.8 J = m*9.8 m/s^2 * 30 m; m = 0.2 kg.
Explanation:
We will use the equations of constant acceleration to find out 
and time t.
As we know that the initial speed is zero. So

Answer:
a reference point allows you to determine the motion of an object :)
example: when your in a car and u look out the window and your moving fast than the car next to you. It seems that way because the car next to you is actually moving much slower.
The velocity of the teddy bear as it strikes the ground is 7.67 m/s.
<h3>
Velocity of the teddy when it strikes the ground</h3>
The velocity of the teddy when it strikes the ground is calculated from principle of conservation of energy as shown below.
K.E(bottom) = P.E(top)
¹/₂mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
where;
- h is height of fall of the teddy
- g is acceleration due to gravity
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 3)
v = 7.67 m/s
Thus, the velocity of the teddy bear as it strikes the ground is 7.67 m/s.
