You throw a basketball straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 5.6 m/s. The ball leaves your hand 1.2 meters above the ground. It moves upwards, stops, and then goes all the way down until it hits the ground (below the height you threw from).A. Use conservation of energy (and not the kinematics equations) to calculate the velocity of the ball the instant before it hits the ground.

A. Calculate the work done by the force of gravity when a 5.0kg object is lifted to a height of 30.0m above the ground B. Calculate the velocity with which the object strikes the ground if dropped from that height, using the principle of conservation of energy C. Calculate the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the object at a halfway on the path after it is dropped. To do this part, you need to find the velocity of the object at that position using an equation of motion. What is the total energy of the object at that point? Does this verify the principle of conservation of energy?
