2. A gun fires a bullet vertically upward. The bullet has a mass of 0.02 lbm and leaves the gun at a velocity of 2000 ft/s. Air resistance is negligible. (a) How much kinetic energy does the bullet possess when it leaves the gun? (b) How high will the bullet go? (c) At its highest point, how much potential energy will it have relative to the gun barrel?
