Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg
Speed (v) = 10 m/s
Kinetic Energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2}m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 0.15 (10)^{2}[/tex] = 7.5 J
Altitude (h) = 15 m
Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J
Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725
= 29.5725 J
