Question
The concept of conservation of energy states that the total mechanical energy of a
closed system remains constant.
If the only energy changes are in kinetic energy (, mv²) and gravitational potential
energy (mgh). What is the total mechanical energy of the system?
Total Mechanical Energy
mv² + mgh
OTotal Mechanical Energy = ;mv²
Total Mechanical Energy = mgh
Total Mechanical Energy = mv² +mgh
