Kinetic Energy is movement energy (most simplistic way I can put it) so its motion.
The initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.
<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>
The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;
During upward motion
h = vi - ¹/₂gt²
h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)
h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)
During downward motion
h = vi + ¹/₂gt²
h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²
h = 11.025 ----------- (2)
solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball
11.025 = vi - 44.1
vi = 11.025 + 44.1
vi = 55.125 m/s
Thus, the initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.
We have following information:
m₁=3 kg
m₂=? kg
v₁=x m/s
v₂=0 m/s
v'1 = v'2 = 1/3 * v₁
Now we insert given information and solve for m₂:
3*v₁ + 0*? = 3*1/3*v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
3v₁ = v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
2v₁ = m₂*1/3*v₁
2 = m₂*1/3
m₂= 6kg
Mass of second mud ball is 6kg.
<span>one year is 365, 1 day is 24 hours, 1 hour is 60 minutes, 60 minutes is 60 seconds, thus (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) = 31,536,000
one year is equal to 31,536,000 seconds. the plate has a speed of 4.8 cm every 31,536,000 seconds. lets find out how far it goes in 40 seconds. (4.8/31,536,000)*40 = 0.00000608828
The plate moves 0.00000608828 cm every 40 seconds</span>
