As we begin to enter one of the most beautiful seasons, we notice as the leaves begin to fall. Looking at this with a larger scope, we can calculate the potential energy of each leaf as a body.
mgh = (1/2)mv^2
Using the above equivalency, we cannot only find the velocity as the leaf falls, but the total potential and kinetic energy.
