While leaning out a window that is 5.7 m above the ground, you drop a 0.60-kg basketball to a friend at ground level. Your friend
catches the ball at a height of 1.9 m above the ground. Determine the following. (a) the amount of work done by the force of gravity on the ball
J (b) the gravitational potential energy of the ball-earth system, relative to the ground when it is released
J (c) the gravitational potential energy of the ball-earth system, relative to the ground when it is caught
J (d) the ratio of the change (PEf — PEG) in the gravitational potential energy of the ball-earth system to the work done on the ball by the force of gravity APE =
