Given
m: mass
m = 25 kg
h: height
h = 50 m
Procedure
(a) Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity. At this height initial velocity is equal to zero
K = 0 J
(b) The potential energy of any given object is a measurement of its potential to do work, create heat and generate power.
![\begin{gathered} U=mgh \\ U=25\operatorname{kg}\cdot9.8m/s^2\cdot50m \\ U=12250\text{ J} \end{gathered}]()
(c) When the mass reaches the ground all the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.
![\begin{gathered} (1)/(2)mv^2=U \\ (1)/(2)mv^2=12250J \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2\cdot12250}{25\operatorname{kg}}} \\ v=31.30\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}]()
