If the 80 kg diver is moving at 1.4 m/s when she is 2.2 m above the pool what is her KE and PE? (round the answer to 1 decimal place and use proper units.)

Use g = 9.8 m/s^2 and the pool surface as zero potential.

KE = 1/2 m v^2 = 0.5(80 kg)(1.4 m/s)^2 = 78.4 J

PE = m g h = (80 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2.2 m) = 1724.8 J
