1. [tex] \huge{ \mathtt{Given :-}}[/tex]

   • Mass of the object = 1 kg
   • Height above the ground = 5m
   • g = 10m/s²

   [tex] \huge{ \mathtt{To \: Find :-}}[/tex]

   • Gravitational Potential Energy
   • Kinetic Energy

   [tex] \huge{ \mathtt{Solution:-}}[/tex]

   Potential energy = mgh

   = 1 × 10 × 5 = 50 Joules.

   Kinetic energy = 1/2×m×v²

   = 1/2 × 1 × V² => V = ?

   [tex]\\ [/tex]

   [tex]\huge\red{Using \: Third \: equation \: of \: motion}[/tex]

   V² – U² = 2as

   V² –0² = 2 (10)(5)

   V² = 100

   V = 10 m/s

   [tex]\\[/tex]

   Hence, kinetic Energy =

   [tex] = \frac{1}{2} \times 1 \times {(10)}^{2} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times 100 \\ \\ = 50 \: joules[/tex]

   Hence, the kinetic energy = 50 J and potential energy = 50 J
