The gravitational potential energy referred to the ground level is given by
U=mgh
where m is the mass of the object, g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height of the object with respect to the ground.

Therefore in our problem the potential energy is
U=(150 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(5 m)=7357.5 J

Suppose a 2.0kg bird is flying at a speed of of 1m/s. It’s kinetic energy would be what?
Ganezh [65]

As we know that the formula of kinetic energy will be

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

now here we know that

m = 2 kg

v = 1 m/s

so from the above equation we have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(2)(1^2)

KE = 1 J

Which quantities indicate a direction and a magnitude?<br>Check all that apply.​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. Although a vector has magnitude and direction, it does not have position.
