Mechanical energy conservation
Question

A body is released from a height H. At some position during its free fall, its kinetic energy is two times its potential energy. Then height of the body at that instant is

Moderate
Solution

If the height is h, then 

KE+PE=mgH2PE+PE=mgHPE=mgH/3

mgh=mgH3h=H3
