Could the first mechanical calculator add subtract mulitply and divide?

No, the very first mechanical calculators could only add and subtract. The first mechanical calculators were invented in 1623 by Wilhelm Schickard, followed by the Pascaline, invented in 1645 by Blaise Pascal. However, calculators that could multiply and divide were in use by the 19th century.


If an object's mechanical energy is equal to its potential energy how much kinetic energy does it have?

Mechanical Energy= Potential energy+ Kinetic energy, so for the mechanical energy to be equal to be potential energy, the kinetic energy must be 0.

Do mechanical pencils use energy?

Mechanical pencils themselves do not need any energy in the forms of battery or electricity. However, mechanical pencils do need human energy to work. We need to add lead and push lead out; they do not do this on their own.
