You're holding a physics book in your hands 0.8 m above the ground. The book has a potential energy of 200 J with respect to the ground. Then you release the book so that it falls toward the ground. What is the potential energy of the book at the moment when it passes a height of 0.2 m above the ground? (in J)

You're holding a physics book in your hands 0.8 m above the ground. The book has a potential energy of 200 J with respect to the ground. Then you release the book so that it falls toward the ground. Ignoring air friction, what is the kinetic energy of the book at the moment when it passes a height of 0.2 m above the ground? (in J)
You drop a 1.10 kg book to a friend who stands on the ground at distance D = 14.0 m below. If your friend's outstretched hands are at distance d = 1.30 m above the ground (see the figure), (a) how much work Wg does the gravitational force do on the book as it drops to her hands? (b) What is the change ΔU in the gravitational potential energy of the book-Earth system during the drop? If the gravitational potential...

The potential energy of the ball B at H m above the ground is 147.15 J. The ball B is released from rest at a height of H m above the ground. When the ball is 10 above the ground the velocity of the ball is 9.90 m/s2. Find the final velocity of the ball before hitting the ground.
36. A math book is lobbed from a height of 4 feet above the ground at an angle of 45" to the horizontal with an initial speed of 20 feet per second. Students in a physics class determined that the path of the book is 202 + +x+4 where x is the distance in feet that the ball has traveled and y is the height of the book above the ground. a. Find the horizontal distance the book has traveled...
