  1. Question 1

    Q1. A body is thrown upwards with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. What is its potential energy at the highest point?

    • A) mgh
    • B) 1/2 mv²
    • C) mgh = 1/2 mv²
    • D) 0

    Answer: mgh = 1/2 mv²

    Explanation: At the highest point, KE = 0, and PE = initial KE = 1/2 mv² = mgh, using conservation of energy.
