A 15 Kilogram anvil is hung from a ceiling . While it is hanging there , it has been determined to have 65 Joules of gravitational potential energy relative to the floor . If the anvil is released , what would be its speed just before it hits the floor ?

v = 2.94 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of anvil, m = 15 kg

The gravitational potential energy relative to the floor, P = 65 J

We need to find the speed just before it hits the floor when the Anvil is released. Let it is v.

We can use the conservation of energy.

So, the required speed is 2.94 m/s.
