Use the formula for gravitational potential energy (PE=mgh), and solve for height.
P.E=mgh =10.2 by 10 by 300 P.E=30,600J
The rock's PE is 29400 joules.
Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object. However, an object's weight is the measurement of gravitational force on the object. The gravitational force on the moon for example is ~ 1/6 of that on Earth. A 300 kg object would weigh 3000N (Newtons) on the Earth but only weigh 500 N on the Moon but its mass would still be 300 kg on the Moon and on the Earth.
PE = m x 9.8 x h:So, 5kg x 9.8 x 5m = 245 joules potential energy.

The rock's PE is 29400 joules.
The object's potential energy is 6,664 joules.
The object's kinetic energy is 78.4 joules.

If the question is analyzed by a non-relastivistic approach of the kinetic energy due to the relatively low velocity of the objects, the equation is: K = 0.5mv² where: K: kinetic energy (Joules) m: mass of the object (kg) v: velocity of the object (m/s) The kinetic energy of object 1 at 1000 kg and 1 m/s is: K1 = 0.5(1000kg)(1m/s)² = 500 kg-m/2 = 500 J The kinetic energy of object 2 at 70 kg and 8 m/s is: K2 = 0.5(70kg)(8m/s)² = 2240 J If higher energy is preferable, than select object 2. If lower energy is preferable, than select object1.
It sinks. (the object weighs more than the water displaced.)
The potential energy of any object is measured using the equation U = mass * gravity * height to the object. Thusly: U = m*G*h U = 17.8 kg * 9.81 m/s2 * 854 m U = 149 123.8 kg m2/s2 or Joules
Object A will move in the direction of object B's velocity; object B will continue in that direction with a final speed less than its initial speed. (Apex)
300 g = 0.3 kg 2.5 kg = 2.5 kg
