A body of mass 5 kg is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 10 m/s. What is its kinetic energy when it is thrown? Find its potential energy when it reaches at the highest point. Also find the maximum height attained by the body.
(g= 10 m/s²)
Plzzz help!❤

Answer:
KE=mv ^2
= 1/2 x5x10x10
= 250
PE=mgh
⛄ Answers:-
☘ Kinetic energy of the body when thrown up= 250 J.
☘ Potential energy of the body at the highest point= 250J.
☘ Maximum height attained by the body = 5m.
⛄ Explanation:-
☘ We have,
★ M = 5 kg,
★ v = 10 m/s.
Now, we know that,
★ K.E. = 1/2 mv²
= 1/2 × 5 × (10)²
= 250 J.
Now, when the body reaches at the highest point, its kinetic energy (K.E.) becomes zero and its entire K.E. is converted into P.E. [But the value remains the same..(In accordance with the Law of Conservation of energy as proposed by Sir Einstein)]
Thus,
→ P.E. of the body
= 250 J.
We know that,
★ P.E. = mgh.
Now, on substituting the known values in the given formula, we get,
250 J = 5 × 10 × h
and that gives,
☞ h = 5 m.
Therefore, the maximum height attained by the body is 5 m.
