To determine the values the total mechanical energy of the given problem we can first identify the values given Given are:
1.       Kinetic Energy = 5.2 Joules
2.       Potential Energy = 3.5 Joules
Solution:
The formula for mechanical energy is
a.       Mechanical energy is total energy of both kinetic and potential hence,
i.      ME = PE + KE                                   
ii.      ME = 3.5 + 5.2                                                            
iii.      ME = 8.7 Joules
