Question

 A 2.00 kg projectile is fired ertically upward with an initial velocity of 98.0 m/s. Find its kinetic energy, its potential energy, and the sum of its kinetic and potential energies at each of the following time:

Make ground the reference level for Ep. Then use h = Vi + up t + 1/2 a-down tto get height above ground for each of the different times, let +(up) be positive. To get the velocity of the mass at height, h, use v = square root (2 Ek  / m). The velocity is given in the problem for time, t = 0. Do NOT use v = sq. root 2gh. Use the Full Conservation of Mechanical Energy equation which contains h and hand state the reference level used to determine hi and hf
