Question

A cup sits on a table. Due to its position, the potential energy of the cup is 3.00 joules. Ignoring frictional effects, if the cup falls off the table, how much kinetic energy will it have when it is halfway to the floor? a) 3.00 J b) 1.50 J c) 0.00 J d) cannot be determined without knowing the mass and the height of the cups

Answer 1

1.5 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to conservation of energy, half way the potential energy will be 1.5J so the remaining 1.5J is kinetic energy.

Answer 2

Answer: 1.50 J
