Answer:

792 J

Explanation:

The total energy of the ball is E = U + K where U = potential energy = mgh and K = kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

E = mgh + 1/2mv² where m = mass of ball = 2.0 kg, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², h = height of building = 20.0 m, v = initial velocity of ball = 20.0 m/s.

So, substituting the values of the variables into E, we have

E = mgh + 1/2mv²

= 2.00 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20.0 m + 1/2 × 2.00 kg × (20.0 m/s)²

= 392 J + 400 J

= 792 J
