1 newton-meter = 1 joule
Energy. The unit of measure for energy is the Newton (N).
Work = 1 newton-meter = 1 joule
Force applied times the distance traveled is work or energy. Think about it...You apply a force to an object, say: push a crate, and you move it a distance. What has been done?? Work. Work is equivalent to energy and is measured in Newton-meters (Nm) or Joules (J).
Kinetic energy is the energy produced when an object is in motion, When applying a potential energy to an object (REMEMBER THAT POTENTIAL ENERGY IS THE STORED ENERGY FOLLOWED BY AN ACTION) and when the object is released to gain motion it has now a kinetic energy. For example: If a Newton ball from a newton's cradle is taken back and released that potential (BY MOVING IT BACKWARDS) Is transformed into kinetic energy when in motion. Kinetic energy is measured in Ns and the formula is Ek= 1/2mV2.

You could use the terms mass, object, or body (that's what Newton used).
Obtain an appropriate weighing device. Make sure the device is calibrated properly. Perform the weighing by placing the object on top of the weighing device.

So what is the question?If you want the kinetic energy, you can calculate the gravitational potential energy at the top (GPE = mgh), and then assume that all the potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy.
Depends on the manifestation of the energy. For kinetic energy, it can be derived from the amount of work done, and other factors. For chemical energy, it can be computed, or various experimental methods can be used, such as a calorimeter.
