Absolute strength measures strength adjusted for your body size, while relative strength measurses maximum strength exerted in a single effort. Hopefully that helps wasn't really sure what you were asking seemed like you had answered your own question.
Considering conservation of mechanical energy we have:
K+U (start)= K+U (end)
Where:
K=kinetic energy=

U=potential energy=

So:
0.05*0.95*9.81+0 (start) = 0+K (end)
K (end)=0.5 Joules
