Calculating KE and PE – 20 points

A 10 kg dog is sitting on a table 250 cm high. If the ground is considered

to be at a height of 0, what is the dog’s gravitational potential energy?

Calculating KE and PE – 30 points

Frosty the Snowman is bounding through the forest. Suddenly a

blizzard hits! The snowfall causes Frosty’s mass to double and his speed to halve. How does his kinetic energy

change as a result?

The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.67 m/s^2. Which has more gravitational potential energy – a 100

kg person 50 m off the Earth’s surface, or a 200 kg lion 100 m off the

moon’s surface? (You must justify your answer to get points.)
