Can you say what is mechanical energy ? Answer should be explainable. All the best
Answers
Answer:
In physical sciences, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the macroscopic energy associated with a system. The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that if an isolated system is subject only to conservative forces, then the mechanical energy is constant.

➡MECHANICAL ENERGY :-
⚫it is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position and motion.
⚫its S.I. unit is joule(J).
⚫there are two kinds of mechanical energy :-
➡POTENTIAL ENERGY :-
⚫It is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its changed position from a reference level.
⚫unit - its SI unit is joule(J).
⚫formulation- PE of a body of mass m at a height h from the surface of eath is, mgh. (g is earths acceleration due to gravity).
➡KINETIC ENERGY :-
⚫ it is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.
⚫unit - its unit is also Joule(J).
⚫formulation- KE of a body of mass m moving with speed v will be, (1/2)mv2.
