Best Answer

The word in your question that I keyed on is "resting". An object at rest has zero kinetic energy. If you meant potential energy, the answer is 1500 joules.

How do objects acquire potential energy?

For an object to require potential energy a force must be acting on it in a certain direction. Even though the object doesnt move doesnt mean it has potential energy. The most common force of otential energy is Gravity. When an object is lifted off the ground gravity becomes stronger. For a formula of proof then use E=FxD (Energy=Force applied x Distance travelled). If a ball has been lifted by 10 Meters with a force of 500 Newtons then it has a Potential Energy of 5000 Newton Meters,
