Kinetic energy is an expression of the fact that a moving object can do work on anything it hits; it quantifies the amount of work the object could do as a result of its motion. And potential energy <span>is the </span>energy<span> that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. </span><span> We calculate as follows:
KE + PE = mv^2 / 2 + mgh
Total energy = .4(25)^2/2 + .4(9.81)(1.2)
Total energy = 129.71 J = 130 J <------- OPTION A</span>
Answer:
F = 296.7N
Explanation:
The x and y component of the position vector are given by:


At t = 2s:

Plugging in:

The resulting force F is:

D = 1/2gt^2 <-- free fall formula
d = (0.5)(9.81)(1.5^2)
d = 11.03625
d = 11.04 m
hope this helps and have a great day :)
