solve 2 and 3

1. A flower pot with a mass of 15 kg is sitting on a window sill 15 meters above the ground. (a) How
much potential energy does the flower pot contain?
2. A bicycle with a mass of 14 kg traveling at a velocity of 3 m/s east has how much kinetic energy?
3. A rubber band has a "spring constant" of 45 N/m. When the rubber band is pulled by a force of 9.8 N,
how far will it stretch and what is its potential energy?
