ANSWER:

Kinetic energy: 133.2 J

Potential energy: 132.3 J

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Gven:

Mass (m) = 5 kg

Height (h) = 2.7 m

Speed (v) = 7.3 m/s

We calculate the kinetic energy and the potential energy using the respective formula in each case, as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} E_k=\frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^2=\frac{1}{2}(5)(7.3)^2=133.2\text{ J} \\ \\ E_p=m\cdot g\cdot h=(5)(9.8)(2.7)=132.3\text{ J} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the kinetic energy is equal to 133.2 joules and the potential energy is equal to 132.3 joules.
