At the top of a giant swing on the gymnastics high bar, candy's velocity is 1 m/s, and she is 3.5 m high. if candy's mass is 50 kg, what is her total mechanical energy at this instant?

At the top of the giant swing on the gymnastics high bar, candy's total mechanical energy is 1740J.

Given the data in the question;

Candy's total mechanical energy;

Total Mechanical Energy (M.E) is the sum of both the potential energy and the kinetic energy of an object.

Where m is the mass, g is gravitational acceleration( ), h is the height and v is the velocity.

We substitute our values into the equation

Therefore, at the top of the giant swing on the gymnastics high bar, candy's total mechanical energy is 1740J
