A 0.2kg Christmas ornament is sitting 200cm high above ground (ground is the 0J potential energy level) on the tree. Calculate the total energy of the ornament on the tree, and ¾ of the way down after it falls off the tree. How much time will it take me to get to the tree to potentially catch the ornament if I am running form the kitchen towards the tree at 3m/s speed and the tree is 4m away from me?
