Answer:
The total energy is 53 Joule
Explanation:
Mechanical Energy
The mechanical energy of an object of mass m, speed v, and at a height h is:
[tex]\displaystyle E = m.g.h+\frac{mv^2}{2}[/tex]
The ball has a mass of m=0.5 Kg, a speed v = 4 m/s, and at a height of h=10 m. Thus the total energy is:
[tex]\displaystyle E = 0.5\cdot 9.8\cdot 10+\frac{0.5\cdot 4^2}{2}[/tex]
E = 49 J + 4 J = 53 J
The total energy is 53 Joule
