Question at position 5

A resident of planet Meatball, where g=12.0000m/s2, stands on the edge of a 25.0000 m high cliff holding an alien fruit called a mango. The 0.7500 kg mango is thrown off the edge of the cliff from a height of 1.5000 m at a speed of 16.0000 m/s and an angle of 20.0000 degrees above the horizontal.

Assume the cliff to be your origin.

(This is technically a kinematics problem, but I may ask some non-kinematic questions here. So, I would encourage you to try any and all of the methods of analysis we have discussed in class to answer this and each other question.)

The mechanical energy of the mango the instant before it hits the ground below the cliff, in J and to three decimal places, is
