The energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.

Example: A roller coaster. When you are going up the energy that is accumulating is potential energy and when you go down the energy that is release is kinetic energy

Answer:

The potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by the position relative to other things. It is also known as stored energy

The formula is: P.E = mgh

P.E = mass * gravitational energy * height

Answer:

The average drag force is  1.206 (-i)  N

Explanation:

You have to apply the equations of<em> Impulse</em>:

I=FmedΔt

Where I and Fmed (the average force) are vectors.

The Impulse can also be expressed as the change in the <em>quantity of motion</em> (vector P)

I=P2-P1

P=mV (m is the mass and v is the velocity)

You can calculate the quantity of motion at the beggining and at the end of the given time:

Replace the mass in kg, dividing the mass by 1000 to convert it from g to kg.

P1=(0.179kg)(30.252m/s) i=  5.414 i kg.m/s

P2=0.179kg)(28.452m/s) i = 5.092 i kg. m/s

Where i is the unit vector in the x-direction.

Therefore:

I= 5.092 i - 5.414 i = -0.322 i

The average drag force is:

Fmed= I/Δt = -0.322 i/ 0.267s = -1.206 i N
