A Peregrine Falcon that weighs 1.5 kg is gliding at 800 meters above the ground. How much potential energy does it have?
5. The same falcon spots a mouse in the brush below her. She dives towards the ground and reaches a maximum velocity of 320 km/hr (Yes, a Peregrine falcon really does have a top speed of over 240 mph!) What is the falcons Kinetic energy at its top speed?


Sagot :

Potential energy = mgh m

Mass = 1.5. g = 9.81 h = 800

Multiply the values together to get the potential energy

The answer will be = 11772 J
