57:17 A ball that has a mechanical energy of 65 J has 12 J of kinetic energy. The ball has blank
energy.
J of potential energy

53 Joules

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of mechanical energy.

Law of conservation of mechanical energy: States that energy although, energy can not be transformed from one form to another, the total energy of the system remain the same.

I.e,

Mechanical Energy = E.K+P.E Equation 1

Where E.K = Kinetic energy, P.E  = Potential energy.

From the question,

Given: Mechanical energy = 65 Joules, K.E = 12 J

Substitute these values into equation 1 and solve for P.E

65 = 12+P.E

P.E = 65-12

P.E = 53 Joules
