The cat possesses potential energy due to its position on the high tree branch. If the cat were to jump from the branch, this potential energy would transform into kinetic energy as it falls.
The idea is to use the formula for potential energy: PE = mgh. Replace the numbers you know, and solve for the missing number.

Beginning with its potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy when it falls
When an apple falls from a tree, its potential energy from being high up in the tree is converted to kinetic energy as it accelerates toward the ground. This conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy illustrates the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one form to another.
its physics term for the fact that it is not in motion (kinetic energy) but it is above the ground, so at any moment it could "potentially" have kinetic energy by falling to the floor.
Paint Branch High School was created in 1969.
Flowery Branch High School was created in 2002.
Fort Branch High School ended in 1974.
Western Branch High School was created in 1968.
Typically used in the form of "high-energy physics", it is the branch of physics that deals with: 1) the conversion of matter into energy (and vice versa) 2) the use of high-energy sources to transport and accelerate matter (such as in particle accelerators, fusion reactors, etc.)
